Downloading problem

[Guest]

I tried to download a file today and at the save or open
page I hit a button at the bottom and now if I try to
click on a link to download something it no longer gives
me the option to save and it sends me straight to the
download progress screen.

Basically I can't choose to save to a folder anymore.
It just goes to download and open file.

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.
