When you have found the file and the download link hit the Download button to start the downloading of the file. At this point a Windows Security Box will appear. This security box is basically asking for your permission to proceed. It will ask you if you want to either run or save the file.

Step 3
There will be three options to choose from that include Run, Save and Cancel. The options are explained further as follows:

Run: this option allows you to download a file to a temporary folder. With this option you need to be careful. As you are downloading files directly from another website. On the internet there is the risk that viruses, malware and other little nasties may gain access and infect your computer. Therefore, before you download any files even if it is from a trusted and authority website you should protect your system by installing an anti-virus software. There are many quality anti-virus products available today. When you have the anti-virus installed the software will automatically scan the file before it is downloaded. If there is a problem or a virus has been detected from the file to be downloaded it will automatically give you a warning.

Save: when you click the save option you are asking your computer to save the downloaded file to your computer's hard drive. A Save As instruction box will appear with options on where you want to save the downloaded file. You either save the files to a folder of your choice or you can save it externally to a CD or memory stick. You need to name a location in order for the installation process to continue and complete.
