? Which skin, for which app, were you trying to download?

Try right clicking on the link and choose "Save Target As..." and save it to a folder. That usually works everytime.

Hmmm, I just tried it and didn't get your problem, so, sorry, I have no idea. Someone else with more knowledge will pop in here and help, I'm sure.
