check box

[whitefirefox]

I accidently unchecked a check box on the download file
prompt it said something like "Always ask before
downloading files" and now that its unchecked I can only
open files but not save them to my computer. Can someone
help me please? This is really frustrating me.

Open Windows Explorer and go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to the file type in question and select it.
Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version.
Check the box for "Confirm open after download".
