I'm trying to save a wmv file to my computer, but Firefox will only let me play it. I've tried going into tools/options/applications and changing the Windows Media Player audio/video file to "Save File" but this hasn't helped.

See if this works:

Tools > Page Info - Media tab = highlight that file and then use Save As...

It is possible that the media content is streamed and that the WMV file only contains a link and in such cases you can't save the media content.
