SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to download a file from the Internet to a floppy disk,
the downloaded file may be zero bytes in size.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if you downloaded the file to an MS-DOS-formatted
floppy disk. Internet Explorer for Macintosh can save files only to a
Macintosh-formatted disk.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, download the file to a Macintosh-formatted
disk, and then move or copy the file to an MS-DOS-formatted floppy disk.
