File save as

I made a mistake...

When browsing the web and, in my case accessing a zip file, I selected to open when it was done downloading. What I really wanted to do was save the zip file. Now I don't have a choice. It downloads the zip file and opens Winzip, I then have to tell it I want to move the archive to the directory I want it saved in; time consuming. Does anybody know how to restore the system so that it will ask what I want to do with this type of file? All others are fine.

Thanks in advance.

Locate the file type (extension), click ADVANCED and click EDIT.
Note the "confirm download" box. Check it.
