Hi everyone !
When I click on a link that point to a file, the Internet
Explorer opens a dialog box asking to "Open" or "Save"
this file.
I don't want that the dialog box appears and always it
has to open the file.
The file is always the same.
Is this possible?

Thank you!
 
Reverse this process. Keep a copy for reference in case you want it back
later.

You set this for each file type, e.g. for .zip
Explorer-View-Folder Options-File Types
Find the .zip association (may be WinZip File)
Edit, (or click Advanced on ME or XP) and check the "Confirm open
after download" box

The path to Folder Options may vary according to your operating
system. It may be:
Explorer-View-Folder Options
Explorer-Tools-Folder Options
Start-Settings-Folder Options
Start-Settings-Control Panel-Folder options.
