When dling from the net, I'm used to it asking me where I'd like to save the file (for example, to desktop) - however, in the last few days my dl just starts on it's own, saving it to a temporary internet folder in C:Windows. Why, and where do I change that, please? -- Colin ICQ 25485061

Somewhere in this there is a check box for "always ask this" in regards to downloading files. I think. I'm using ME and I don;t recall if you are or not. email me, Colin (I dont have icq installed at the moment) and we can flog it out. ~daxe
Colin, have you added any programs lately ? When I installed winzip internet addon it automatically saved files to C:/downloads. -- Ian P <email invalid due to spam> Colin Harris <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ylLB6.15900$[email hidden]... > When dling from the net, I'm used to it asking me where I'd like to save the > file (for example, to desktop) - however, in the last few days my dl just > starts on it's own, saving it to a temporary internet folder in C:Windows. > Why, and where do I change that, please? > > -- > > > Colin > ICQ 25485061 > >
