downloading this game only gives you the "save to" option. Does not allow the
game to be run from the location. This occurs with other games on Yahoo as well
as other sites that have this option to play online games.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to url
2. download
3. attempt to play from location

Actual Results:  
only download option given

Expected Results:  
allowed "open from" option

You can't open EXE files directly from the download manager, for security
reasons. You can download the file and then click the "open" from the download
manager.
