[Resolved] IE 6 - Automatically opens files, can't save them!

[n8thegr898]

I recently have downloaded and installed Internet Explorer 6. I have enjoyed it so far, however when I would download something, it kept coming up with the dialog box asking me if I wanted to open the file, save it or whatever. Also, there is a checkbox to never ask this question again. I checked the box (to never ask again) and THOUGHT I clicked the save button, however I must have clicked the open button. So...now, everytime I want to download a file, it trys opening it, instead of saving it. It's a really big pain, and I can't find out where to reset this setting. Any ideas???

Thanks!

In Folder Options> Fille Types you need to find the particular file extension you are having problems with and follow the directions here:
