one day i was downloading mathematica file but by accident clicked off on
always open this file without asking tick.

now when ever i click on a link for a mathematica notebook, it will just
down and open it instead of askin gme if i wasnt to save it some place.

question is how do i change the setting so that IE will ask me to save it
before it opens a *.nb file from a website?

thanks all in advance

Hi,
You have to set this option for each file type and the route to Folder
options> File types will be slightly different, depending on your OS:

From Windows Explorer> View> Folder options> File types
OR Explorer> Tools> Folder options> File types
OR Ctrl Panel> Folder options then File Types. Select [file type]> Advanced.
Put a check by "Confirm open after download."
You should then get the "Open or Save" dialog for each download.
