Got it. I clicked on the tri-color balls on the lower rt and it just gave me a list of sites where downloads may be found. The balls also appear above and to the left of the video window where the movie is supposed to appear. When I clicked on it I got the save-as window. But then I had to stop the browser and migrate away from the page on account of my tiny bandwidth. But it works, very kewl :)
