Ah - I think I am clearer now. It is possible for web designers to prevent save target as an option in the context menu. Similar measures can be used to prevent people copying images from web pages also. In other words they may want to force you to stream the mp3. they may want to do this if there is advertising playing on the screen whilst you are listening to the music.
You can of course then use other methods to record the stream as an mp3 file as it is played through your sound card but I will not go into this yet as it is not absolutely clear that this is your problem.

The web site seems to have gone to bed for the night as it's not loading, but thanks for your help, I'll try yours and Jon's suggestion, what do I have to loose, right?
