How do I stop Firefox Mobile from automatically opening my downloads?

When I download a podcast (mp3 format) after completion of the download, it's automatically opened through Firefox. Other browsers have not auto opened the podcasts.

If you press and hold on the link and then choose "Save Link" from the pop-up menu, then Firefox will not open the file when it finishes downloading.
