How to I get IE to save, not launch a file type?

[Mark Fineman]

How do I get IE to start giving me an Open or Save dialog box
for a file type I had previously said could be opened without
giving me the dialog box.

In particular, I previously unchecked the
"Always ask before opening this type of file"
box in the dialog for .PDF files, but I now
need to save the files.

(For various reasons, launching Adobe Reader and then saving
the file won't work.)

I am running Windows 98 Second Edition.
I am running Internet Explorer 6.

Thanks.

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.
