Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Responding to MacMinister below: Apologies to users using Mozilla-based Web browsers, but for reasons beyond my control, files downloaded from my Web site are treated as text files by Mozilla's browsers. I recommend using Safari or (gasp!) MSIE to download the screen saver.

You might still be able to download the saver using Firefox & friends by right-clicking (or Control-clicking) on a direct download link and choosing "save as" in the menu.

It's Firefox/Mozilla/Camino... - aoimedia

Nick,
I had similar problms with downloads from my own site.
If your hosted on a UNIX/Apache based server, an easy way around this is to use a little .htaccess file at the root of your web directory.

I am no expert myself, but found it extremely easy to set up (takes around 10 minutes!) and allows all downloads to, well, download as expected by all browsers.

A useful guide can be found here

All the best
