No download dialog box with .zip files

[Steve]

No download dialog box when downloading .zip files. File
downloads invisibly and when complete the zip file folder
pops-up open. Appreciate any advice, info.

Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve,

To get the download dialog box, enable the "confirm open after download"
option for that filetype:

Click "Start" -> "Program Files" -> "Windows Explorer".
Then click "Tools" -> "Folder Options".
Change to the "File Type" tabs.
Scroll down to locate the file type. Highlight the filetype and click the
"Advanced" button.
Then check the option "confirm open after download".

If this does not help, set the "NoSelectDownloadDir" to "0"

That solved the problem with ZIP files on my W2000 computer. Now I still
need to solve the same problem with EXE files on my W98 computer.

Thanks!
