Using XP sp3 Pro. When I download any file, for instance, a jpg/jpeg/gif
image, when I try to open that image I get the open file security warning
'Do you want to open this file?'. There is a checkbox (Always ask before
opening this file) and regardless of whether it is ticked or not I still get
the open file confirmation dialogue showing itself everytime I download any
file and try to open it. Now how can I stop this confirmation. Everytime I
download an image and open it I have to untick this confirmation dialogue.
In Folder Options>File Types tab>Jpg and jpeg extensions>advanced
button...the confirm open after download is unchecked, so why do I still get
the open file security dialogue everytime I want to open a newly downloaded
file/image. I appreciate the value of this default for say an exe extension
but is there some setting I can do get rid of this confirmation for certain
file types?
