As a temp fix, you need to right click and save as .. The browser is trying to open the file in the browser itself, not downloading it. I think you can set this in the browser's option too.
1. right click on the map link you want to download
2. click on Save Link As...
3. on the new window popup, choose All Files from the Save Type As bar
4. add the suffix: .sc2map on the file name for example - Minimaptest rename it to Minimaptest.sc2map
5. click save
6. ???
7. Profit!

How do I open links in posts, like, for example, a link to a map? When I try to open it it just comes up with a screen full of wierd symbols.
