Hey everyone,

I just have a quick question. With my IE 6.0 it always
opens zip files without asking me instead of giving me a
choice to save or open.

My question is, how do you change it back so it asks you
if you want to save or open the file.

Thanks in advance everyone!

Copy and paste :) :

"Open Windows Explorer and go to Tools | Folder Options | File Types.
Scroll down to the file type in question and select it.
Click Edit or Advanced, depending on your Windows version.
Check the box for "Confirm open after download"."
