          Description

          Intro:
          Safari users trying to download the igb.jnlp file may experience frustration since Safari downloads JNLP files into an uncommon directory (/private/var/.../T). This is due to the fact that Safari does not have a MIME type associated with JNLP files.

          *To get Safari to download JNLP files into the "Downloads" directory:
          1) Open Safari preferences and click on the "General" tab.
          2) Uncheck the "Open "safe" files after downloading" box.
          Observe: JNLP files now get downloaded to the "Downloads" folder.

          What the IGB team needs to do:
          1) Add a message to the IGB Downloads page that presents this information to Safari users.
          2) Possibly add this issue to IGB's documentation as well (any feedback would be greatly appreciated).
