There is a crt file that I need to download for my VPN service. I need to simply download the file and place it in a specific directory. However, firefox won't give me the option to download the file. It only wants to import it.

This happened

Not sure how often

== Everytime I try to download that crt file.

Right click the link and use "Save Link as" to save the file.

This is a bummer. I try to log in and it tells me that my user name is invalid. This is still xioc1138.

I'm aware of the right click trick - the trouble is that I don't have a link, just a URL that I copy and paste into the address bar. I ended up making an HTML page and downloaded the link that way - I'd still like to know if there is a way to prevent firefox from trying to import crt files.
