Default Unable to download latest Limewire

Same thing is happening when attempting to download 4.6.0 as happened with previous update. I click on "download" and get pages of code. My download manager does not show that it is downloading. I have tried waiting thinking I might just not be seeing it but after a lengthy passage of time nothing happens. I tried the lime3. page and get "redir" when I try to download. Shows up as a code doc. What can I do to get around this? Or do I need panther?

Use Safari. Internet Explorer would do this sometimes.

Control-clicking the link and choosing "download to disk" should also work to get around the browser treating the download like a web page rather than a file.

Thanks so much. Friends keep saying I should get off of IE and switch to Safari. I think this may be the best reason. I downloaded the latest Limewire with no problem. BTW, I couldn't get it to work on Netscape either so it's best to know about Safari.

Thanks again.
