I want to save a podcast (mp3) from a website. The instructions there say to right-click on it and choose "Save Target As" or"Save Link As". However, when I do right-click, I don't get that menu choice. The podcast just starts playing. I am unable to save images by right-clicking also.

hi cre8tivegal, if you want to download content instead of playing it in firefox (wherever this is possible), you can try the following: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named media.play-stand-alone. double-click it and change its value to false.
