IE Help

I accidentally did something and now I'm screwed.

When I choose to download something, it used to ask me whether I wanted to open it or save it to disk.

Now, it seems to have taken the open it option as default and doesnt prompt me on what to do.

Anyone know how to get the prompt back?

thanks

Did you mess with your advanced settings under internet options?

Yes.

I think that this is just for .zip files.

How can I change it back so that it asks me what to do when i try to dl a zip file?

If you're using XP, I think this should do it. Open up my computer (any windows explorer window should do though)

Click Tools, Folder Options

Go to the 'file types' tab

Scroll down to the zip file (they're in alphabetical order)

You definitely want to be in here. Now what I *THINK* you're looking for is to click on "advanced" and then put a check in the box for "confirm open after download"

If not, I think you can find it in there somewhere.
