I know this sounds dumb... but I am not the biggest genius with computers. I
was wondering how to save a program to a disk, such as a cd-rw or something.
Any comments would be appreciated.

Is this what you mean?

Download a file without installing it. Save it first, copy to CD, then
install it.

1. Locate a program (file) to download.

2. Once you have clicked on a link to download, a pop-up box will appear
notifying you that you have started the file download process. This box will
either be titled File Download or Unknown File Type. Depending on the box
that appears, click either the OK button or the Save button to proceed with
the download process.

3. A box will appear asking you where you want to save the file you are
about to download.

4. Locate a folder to save the file in. (My Download Files folder.)
By default, it is downloaded to the last folder in which you saved a file.
It is best to create a folder on your hard drive where you will keep all of
your downloaded files. This will keep your file directory uncluttered and
you will always know where to look for anything you have downloaded.

5. Click the Save button. This will initiate the actual download of the
file. A box will appear on your screen that will show the status of the
download.

6. Depending on what file type was downloaded, you will either need to
decompress the file so that you can install the relevant components, or the
file will be in a ready-to-install format. Either way, at this point, this
is the file you want to save to CD.

7. After the file is saved, copy it to CD.
