I wanted to do the equivalent of right clicking the link and clicking "Save Target As..." - this brings a dialog box saying save or open the file.

:lol: Martin :lol:

I think that may be do to your sys settings.

Maybe "tools|Internet Options|Advanced Tab"

I've used every windows system exceot 2000 and they've always opened a direct download dialog when clicking any file-type that IE cant play itself. So I'm really curious about your situation...I would want to know "for sure" when I'm DLing....lol.....good luck.
