[QUOTE="NoWaterNoFun, post: 487509, member: 38261"] How is everyone doing here? Recently switched to a Mac and really enjoy its functionality and ease of use. I have a really simple question... I hope? When looking at documents on the internet (ie. wmv, pdf, doc, odt, xls etc.) my browser always saves a copy of this file on my desktop. I use mozilla the most to browse. This happens even though I have the settings to download to a different file folder. But I realize that downloading and opening a file are two different things. How do I prevent my computer from automatically saving open files on my desktop? Thanks for your help. Peace. [/QUOTE]
