Explorer AutoOpen?
-
Over the last week or so, clicking on a zip link in IExplorer downloads and opens the zip file directly in Winzip, As opposed to downloading and saving the file (after prompting).
Does anyone know what has happened to my IE settings and how to change this back to the original action?cheers.

Inspired by Toni78In IE6, open the Tools menu and select Folder Options. Click the File Types tab, then scroll down the list of types to ZIP. Select it, then click the Advanced button. Select the "Confirm open after download" checkbox, then OK twice to close the dialogs. In earlier versions of IE the Folder Options function is located in the View menu, I believe. In versions 4 and earlier you have to edit the registry - check the Knowledge Base at Technet for info on this.

"Ask not for whom the bell tolls;
