when the save as message appears there is something that says close this dialogue box when download ends, you have to check it so that when you finish downloading the document it just closes.

try this way

If you are downloading, choose Save AS and choose destination - file folder.
The destination chosen is used all the time unless you change it...
So next time the new worksheets will be downloaded to the same folder - you will need one click only... :-D

IF you do nothing, (no "save as") the worksheet opens for viewing purposes and you must save it manually...
It is better to use "save as" .

I�ve been having this problem for a while now, but only with printables, not with powerpoints and not on my laptop, which is Vista.

Are you using google chrome? �Other browers probablly have the same option somewhere:

In google chrome:
1) Click the spanner in the top right corner and click options:
2) On the second tab (Minor Tweaks) - you will see a checkbox "Ask to save file before downloading" - make sure it�s checked.

Sorry, I don�t know where that option is on firefox, or IE.
