IExplore opens .zip files instead of saving them to disk.

[Gemin-eye]

Hi.
I was downloading a mod for Doom3 and it came in a zip file. By accident I
put a check in the option to never show this again and opened it. Now
Internet explorer always opens zip files. I can't find the option to set
back to the way it was, giving me the choice to open it or save it to disk.
What do I have to do? Is there a registry fix or some hidden option in the
Internet properties?
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Hi,

Windows Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/File Types/[File Type in
Question]/Advanced. Put a check in the box that reads: Confirm open after
download.

Enable Always Ask Before Opening... (Line 164)
