Files are listed backwards!

When I'm in Internet Explorer and I Save a file or Open a file, the other
files are automatically listed in reverse alphabetical order. It started
doing this about a month ago, and I can't figure out how to change it. Any
suggestions?

Click on the word "NAME" at the top of the column. It will change the
order,

You can do the same with the other columns if you want as well.

Yeah, but that only works temporarily. When I close the window Open/Save File
window, the files go back to being in reverse alphabetical order.

Or...

[[To resolve this behavior, reset the default sort order:
1. Right-click Start, click Explore and then click drive C.
2. On the View menu, click Details.
3. Click the Name column to sort items by name, press and hold down the CTRL
key, and thenquit Windows Explorer by clicking Close in the upper-right
corner of the screen.
4. Release the CTRL key.
5. Restart your computer.

NOTE: You must perform these steps exactly as they are listed. For example,
do not quit Windows Explorer by clicking Exit on the File menu. ]]
