Konqueror and Saving FIles

I've used Netscape/Mozilla on the Mac for quite a while, since the Mac
was by primary browsing machine. I've since considered having my Linux
box play a more prominent role, and as such, I've begun using Konqueror.
Generally, the developers have done some very good work here, but I've
run into a problem that is making it somewhat of a pain. Both bzip2
archives and tarballs are very common on the Linux platform, when I
click on a download link, I'd like *more than anything else* to be able
to, um, download the file. I don't want to extract it, I don't want to
browse the contents of the archive. All I want to do is download the
file *as is*- seems reasonable - click on a download link, and it
downloads the file. Problem is, I can't figure out how to make this
happen - the File Associations setting for the 'application' group says
to 'Show file in separate viewer' (what ever that means), but oddly
missing is a 'Save file to disk' option. Is there a way I can restore
some sanity to this process by having it do what I expect it to do
(download the file), rather than what it's doing now?
Thanks,
Tom
