I like to download some of the shows from Channel 9. This was no problem in Opera, but in Google Chrome I'm not quite sure how to do this. When I click on a link to a wmv file it starts to stream it with the windows media plug-in instead of downloading it. This is of course ok in some circumstanses, but right now I want to download it. And I can't figure out how…
Any ideas?
Actually, I just figured out in this particular case I could right-click and do Save As. But I still would like to know how to do it if you just had the direct url to a media file. For example when copied from an email or chat client.

If I receive a direct link to a media file, I usually use wget for windows to download it.
