Francisco,
Thank you for the link to the PDMT extension. Works perfectly! Keeper.
FF now does a 'save link as' the way I expect.
Today will be adding it to all FF browsers on the LAN clients. Done.
What irks me is that WE have to add girth to the base FF browser code to
seem to fix internal stuff that appears to be wrong. I'd like to use a
browser that does not get bloated with 'tweakes' for what I see as
general personal preferences. JMHO.
Pardon, that was a silly wish! One size does not fit all!......... :)
And, I freely admit that I am not close to what I perceive as the new
'general PC user.' Fine.
Thank God for the Collective! Given patience, the answer appears every
time in my experience.
Thanks,
Duncan

one cool benefit for FF is that there are a ton of plugins/addons, just
found this:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/preserve-download-modification/
About this Add-on When Firefox downloads a file, it sets the file
modification time to be the current time. This is pretty much how every
browser behaves. However, some will point out that this behavior is
actually wrong (though it's a matter of opinion).
This extension allows Firefox to preserve the modification time, that is
sent by the server, when you download a file. This should work for any file
downloaded via *http://*, *file://*, or *ftp://* (Firefox 4.0+ and
SeaMonkey 2.1+) so long as the server sends the proper information.

Francisco,
That is a very good interim suggestion. I will do this for now.
I will go off and get lost in the Mozy forums and see what
shakes out.

I haven't a clue, instead what I do is modify the filename to show the
timestamp that I want so for example
windoze8beta2_20120122.exe

I can 'save link as' and 'save link' only. When I 'save link as' my
downloaded file
is date/time the day I do the save. Bummer. The file was posted 12 days
prior.
