How do I get my 'save this file to disk?' prompt back?

I accidently unchecked the 'Always ask before opening this
type of file' box and now it just opens the file type in
question (.zip in this case) without prompting me to save
it first. How do I get my prompt back (undo the
unchecking)?

I'm using IE6 & Windows 98 (in case you need to know).

Thanks to anyone who can help. :)

Cheers,
Ami
