I have encountered the usual Chrome "feature" of displaying "this type of file can harm your computer mac no keep option" when trying to download a file from a filehosting website.

However, when the warning appears there is only ever a "discard" button and not one to "keep" the file as I have seen when using Windows...

enter image description here

Can anybody suggest anything?

Going to the downloads list (Command+Shift+J) shows you the Keep option.
