You don't know hot to download a file from Internet?
Choose save and wait until it completes the download. The ISO file is 700 MB, so it will take a while.

The format is ISO. Roxio Creator is just a program that you can use to take that ISO file and burn it in a CD. But first save it to the disk. If you want to make sure it gets saved, right-click the orange link and select "save link as..." or some similar option.
