I'm still very confused by the wording of your message here.  Let me 
demonstrate...

Huh?
I'm still extremely confused by what you're trying to say here.


when you say: "you are not just select move
to link and go from there", are you trying to say that, in your experience 
with JAWS, that you do not have to first press insert plus f7 which opens 
up the select a link list, and then tab over to the move to link button and 
press the space bar to get to the save target as...option, or are you 
trying to say that
left clicking on the link instead gets you to the save target as option?
when I say right clicking, I am talking about hitting the context menu key, 
which is located 2 keys to the left of the left arrow key. I'm not 
referring to the right mouse button. On my system, the menu items i spoke 
about,
back, forward, save background as..., set as background, copy background, 
set as desktop item and all the rest, appear in the menu simply by pressing 
the context menu key when focused on the link to download an mp3 file, or 
another file to download.  To get to the save target as and other items I 
must first bring up the list of links with insert plus f7. then, when when 
focused on the link to download the mp3 file, I must then tab over to the 
move to link buttonn and press the space bar, which then focuses JAWS on 
the actual  link.  This is clearly a focus issue because JAWS is able to 
see the link and read it properly, but it's still focused on the 
other  areas of the screen when it comes to actually focusing on the right 
portion of the screen.
So it's a focus issue. This is how it is in my experience, and what myself 
and others are trying to say is, we wish we didn't have to take that extra 
step I.e. pressing the move to link button in order to get to the save 
target as option when Window-eyes lets you get to this option simply by 
hitting the context menu key. No finding a button to press, it simply 
brings you right there.
