Question

Since I install the latest patched for IE6 when ever I open a link to a zip file it automatically open it instead of asking me to save it. Does anyone know how I can change this back?

Cheers

In Explorer (not IE) choose View/Folder Options/File Types, select .zip files, then advanced. Tick "Confirm file open after download" and you're laughing.

Bloody annoying that one. BTDTGTTS.
Cheers,
nick.
