Write the name of the file you are downloading as it appears in the Save As... dialog box. Write the filename here: _________________________________. You can use the "Find..." command to locate the file later if you need to. *Note for Windows 95 users running Novell network software: The Novell software will shorten the Shockwave Installer filename once you download it. For example, "Shockwave Installer.exe" will become "!Shockwa~.exe". The Shockwave Installer will still work with this shorter filename. 4. Click Save. On the Macintosh 1. On your desktop, there should be the Shockwave Installer. If it is not on your desktop, it should be in the download folder of your browser.

If you have a compressed installer file with the extension ".sea.hqx" and no Shockwave Installer file, you may not have the necessary helper applications to decompress software downloads.
