I unfortunately know about Netscape for Windows, but I was trying it at home
with Netscape 3 on my Quadra. I did something similar, but I just used the
save link as... option in the popup menu. Then I dropped the file on ProTYPE
to set the type etc. Pretty effortless.

I'm used to having Fetch process all the files I download using regular ol'
FTP and when it does, the types are set and resources are stripped and files
are ready to use before I even touch 'em. I figured a fellow had to set up
Netscape similarly in the helper apps section to get it to work.
