Wow I wonder what it is too.

So what did you do? open, save or cancel???

Using IE or netscape?

Have the ads here or are they turned off?

Marlene, just to let you know about screen captures . . .

pressing PrintScrn will get a shot of everything showing on your screen, but Alt+Print Scrn will only capture the active window. It's perfect for capturing error popups, or notifications like the one you have noticed.

As to why you received that??? I haven't a clue. I didn't get it.

Probably just a little boo-boo on the server. When I set up PHP on my own test server I had the same problem at first, didn't follow the installation instructions

Also...
I have noticed that when my system resources are really low...aproaching 0...that I will get a d/l box when I click a link, this is usually shortly followed by a freeze up .... Graphics programs are particularly hard on system resources, so you might want to keep a eye on them if your doing "image conversions" ...Rhett

Rhett: I had no windows open or programs running at that particular time. I did open the pathetic program I use for "image conversions" and the resources were still 84%. Well speaking of conversions.....off to do you! You are back from the desert....right? Take care. angel
