Hello...

For some reason eveytime I download a visual theme example (263KB)
It goes to my temporary internet files instead of asking me to save the target and put it on my desktop.

There must be a way to default it.
Thanks, please respond.

This is a server setting which you cannot change. A few sites do this, such as Winamp.

I do not really understand your question. You mean when you click on a file it opens right away? You could always just save what ever it is and open from your computer. (right click -> Save target as... in IE)

How about posting a link to this site. That will be more helpful.

IT WILL NOT APPEAR THE WINDOWS DOWNLOAD BAR IF I TRY TO DOWNLOAD A ZIP FILE --> IT JUST AUTO DOWNLOADS AND GOES STRAIGHT TO MY TEMP FOLDER AND OPENS IT!

it auto opens the zip file... it does not ask me to save it where i want to save it, instead it saves to temp files and opens it...
