IN IE6, when clicking on a link to a zip file, it just downloads it in the background and opens it when its done.

it should pop up a notepad window with the source, but doesn't now.

only program I've installed recently is avant browser....think that may be screwing it up? anything else to try?


Thanks spinningm0nkey, now for part 2

Now for my next question. Somewhere along the way when downloading a zip file I must have had "always do this" checked and clicked for windows just to open it instead of prompting me to save it.

I tried adding "AlwaysPromptWhenDownload" dword in the above registry location, but that didn't work.

Anyway I can set it back to the way it was?

uninstalling avant browser did nothing...

thank you.

adding the registry value "NoViewSource" (with a 0 value) in:
My Computer/HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
worked just fine after restarting IE.
