You got some replies that said something to the effect of "shift+click" or
right click, then select "save link as..."

The latter of the two occasionally doesn't work because of a weird netscape
bug.  When you are on a page with frames, it doesn't seem to care that your
mouse is over a hyperlink or not, it just gives the frames properties
menu.  I hope Mozilla fixes this.

I hate shift clicking.  It's so  hard to explain to people. "Shift click!", I
shout, as I stand over the user's shoulder. "Shift click!"

So they type the word click while holding down the shift key.  D'arrgh.

There is a better way:

Edit -> Preferences -> Netscape -> Applications -> New ->
Description: Red Hat Package Management
MIMEType: Unknown
Suffixs:
[sic, should be Suffixes -- anyway...]

Suffixs: rpm
[sic] [not .rpm, not *.rpm, just rpm]

Handled by:
select "Save to Disk"
Hit OK.

You should be all set.
