I dont see why that exe file would be going to my tmp folder. i'm using mozilla 1.5. maybe thats just the way the mozilla download manager works. its odd that it would use a temp file name with exe extension as a temp file. I will do wget and hope for the best. :) thanks Jose Lima (not the baseball player) --- Olivier@yahoo.com, UNEXPECTED_DATA_AFTER_ADDRESS@.SYNTAX-ERROR. wrote: > Hi you! :-) > > The error message says it all:although you're saving > to your desktop, the file > seems to be first received in /tmp (hence the file > name).
