Is there a way to save the data file directly to my computer without having to download the self-extracting zip file (.exe)?

A. If you are using Microsoft® Internet Explorer 4.0 or 5.0, yes. Before you download your data, you will be prompted to either 'Run this program from its current location' or 'Save this program to disk'.

If you choose 'Save this program to disk', you will save the data in the self-extracting zip file (.exe) format. If you choose 'Run this program from its current location', the file will be saved directly as the data format. Be cautioned, however, that the download time will be longer if you choose the second method.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
