Hi Jim, That would be Internet Explorer at fault. In a case of mp3s and media files like that Internet Explorer will often assume you want to play/stream the media instead of download it. Its been ages since I used Internet Explorer, but there should be something under Internet Options that allows you to change this behavior to prompt you to download or play the file. The web browser I use, Firefox, certainly has such an option and that's how I avoid certain files automatically playing when I click on the links.Firefox comes up with a dialog asking me to open/play or save the file.
