email attachments

I am using a Acer Aspire laptop and using aol webmail for my email. I am not
able to open or save attachments from my email. a window will open up and
ask to save or open, but when I click open it will save as if it is going to
open the attachment but never shows the attachment. when I "save as" an
attachment it supposedly sends it to my computer, but I can never find the
file. If I go to recent downloads and select the file that I downloaded it
says it is missing the shortcut. I am up to date with Adobe Reader for pdf
files.

Dave,

When the "Save As" dialog box is open, change the save location to the one
that you want and can remember.
