trying to download PDF file -- it always OPENS


I'm trying to download some adobe PDF files from the web using Konqueror (KDE) but the system always tries to OPEN these -- I want to download to a local disk. I can't seem to find a setting in KDE which allows this

(Windows has a Save target AS option if you don't want to open the files first but konq opens immediately)

Any ideas anyone
Thanks

at least Mozilla has "Save link as" -choise. and how about if you try to press some button while clicking...say shift or alt or something. some OS'es and apps behave differently then...and you could also check out Konqueror's (or KDE's) help pages on the net or on your own machine.
