When executing a .ps file Save dialog appears...

I'm running a java app that when a certain button is clicked will open a new window that will open a file. However, windows interrupts the process and has a dialog box that has "Save" and "Cancel" and this stupid description about security and vulnerabilites of certain files. How can i either disable this, or get the "Open" button to show up?

Yes, a .ps file is a postscript file, it opens with ghostview or acrobat. The hava app is a *.jar app, oracle based?...not sure about that one. after installing sp1, i just want to know how to get rid of that stupid prompt box that has no open button. i've tried looking in group policies, couldn't find anything...
 
It sounds like the file type association got screwed up. Reinstall Acrobat or Ghostscript if you don't know how to muck around with associations manually.
 
actually, the associations are fine. When i click on a .ps file directly, it opens in ghostview no problems. However, in my problem, it comes up with a save prompt instead of just opening like usual.
 
The only other thing I can think of is to look at the source, if you can obtain it, and see if it's doing anything odd. Otherwise, you're going to have to wait for someone else.
