Unless instructed otherwise on the page itself, hit the Save button to save the program or file to your own drive. (Also, there is a checkbox in one of the Internet Explorer - accessibility? options - to have the file open automatically upon completion of download. You should also hear a sound when the file download has completed, so you know to hit enter on Open. Then, pay attention to the ensuing installation dialogue. (One does better, in my opinion, to save downloaded files/programs in a location other than the desktop, in case one accidentally hits enter on the .exe file on the desktop and also because many such programs place their icons as shortcuts on the desktop. So, desktop may serve as aa 'quickstart', but need not be a point for re-installation of a program by accident.)

I apologize for this simple question, but I get confused all of the time. When down loading a program, I hear the option to either run or save. I usually hit "save" and after going through the options, I have it listed on my desk top. Sometimes, I'll hit "run" after all of this in hope the program will work. An example is when I updated the "Spybot" from the JAWS list. Now I have an extra version on my desk top which has a few extra letters than the title "Spybot". My question is whether I should hit the save button or the run button?. Should I delete the extra versions that are on my desk top? Thank you for any help.
