[KLUG Members] Download problem with Galeon or Netscape.

I recently noticed that Redhat 8.0 is available for download now.
And, as expected, the main site and all the mirrors are clogged.

So, I thought I'd be smart and use my RHN subscription to download 
the ISO's direct from the Redhat pay service.

I went there, and it let me start the download fine.  Then I noticed 
ONE MAJOR PROBLEM . . .

With a Galeon & Netscape download (tried both) it downloads the files to
/tmp and moves them to the destination directory after it's complete.
Well, I don't have enough room in /tmp for ISO images!!!

Is there any way to change this behavior???

I tried changing galeon to use wget, but that doesn't work in this case
either (maybe it's missing a RHN cookie or authorization).
