Every time I want to download a ZIP file, XP will automatically download it and then open the zip file. When i used ME, it always gave me the option of "save to disk". This happens whether i have WINZIP installed or not so is there a option in IE or any part of XP to turn this off?

Thanks.

I dont remember ever checking an always open box after i installed XP, i dont see why i would have done that.

I get no dialog box, it just starts to download then when it is done, winzip opens up with the files in it.

Thnaks for tyhe try!
