Don't worry about downloading the link to the desktop (The link posted was for virustotal.)
Just click on the link, and it will open the website in a new tab or window. On that website, click the browse button, and use the explorer-like interface to locate the file in the folder you have created. Then upload it. (there is an upload button, titled "send file".)
Wait for the scanning to finish.
Please post the URL (copy and paste it from the browser address bar direct into your next post) once the results are in.
There is a good chance it has already been scanned, if so, post the permalink it comes up with. (Have a look at that results page yourself, to get a bit of an idea, too, if that's the case.)
