Help! Downloading Problems

[jas]

When I was downloading a file, I accidentaly unchecked
the box for ' always ask' between open and save. So now,
every file I click on automatically opens! Is there any
way I can have that options of getting open and save
back? I have no idea how to fix this problem!

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.
