And here is the rest of it.
Note: Some websites do not allow for this function
and a web address is placed within the document
instead of the image or text. If it is moving
or flash content a fixed screen capture of the
moving image may work.

2nd way:
1) in the MS Internet Explorer window highlight text
or [ctrl] and [a] keys simultaneously for select all
(which may get only one frame or part of the screen)..
2) click the MS Internet Explorer toolbar window of
icon of two clipboards to copy.
3) open up MS Word to a new empty document
4) go to the menu and press down on left
mouse button and then select to paste.
5) save file to USB Drive, Floppy, or Desktop.

3rd a little more tricky...
1) in the MS Internet Explorer window highlight text
or [ctr] and [a] for select all (which may get only one
frame or part of the screen).
2) keystrokes [ctrl] and [c] simultaneously to copy
3) open up MS Word
4) keystrokes [ctrl] and [v] simultaneously to paste
to a ms word document5) save file to USB Drive,
