How to run the jigsaw puzzle: Sorry. At this time, the jigsaw puzzles only work with Internet Explorer. When you click on the thumbnail image, a small window will appear asking you if you want to run or save the file. If you choose run, you can play immediately. If you save the game, be sure to remember which folder you are saving it to. You can then double-click on the file and it will launch.
