Disable Automatic opening of downloaded files....How?

[Guillaume GARIDEL]

Hello,

Everytime I try to download a zip file, it's downloaded and opened. May have
clicked the always open button
I'd like to get back the "Save As" option.

How can I do this?

You failed to mention what operating system you are using?

For Windows XP:
1. Open Windows Explorer and click on Tools||Folder Options...||File Type.
2. Select the "ZIP" file type from the list and click on the Advanced
button.
3. Put a checkmark in the box next to "Confirm open after download".

For Windows Vista see:
