Heh. I don't think the network administrator at my summer temp job would go for that. *snickers*
I finally figured out what was going on but I was so swamped at the office (two print deadlines in one day) I couldn't post the solution -- apparently my system at the office has QuickTime software that I don't own at home. So the download will default and play on the QuickTime Plug-in instead.
All I had to do was select the link (without clicking on it, which would open QuickTime instantly) scroll down the menu options, then select Download Link To Disc. Yes, that reads like it will just copy the link, but in fact it does d/l at that point.
Do you know how many times I hovered over the link and then - gah! - accidentally clicked it? Oh yes. All day long.
