Sorry Ted I never seem to explain myself well. I was just talking about what happens when I manually retrieve the file with IE. I tried to do it manually with firefox to see if I get the security warning message (this just asks if you want to open, save, or cancel) but it doesn't like one of the sites javascript buttons. I guess my question is how to handle a file once I use click() or submit() with Mechanize. This might be obvious to a vet Perl programmer but like I said it's been a long time for me. Do I have to associate a file handle to click() or submit() or am I just grasping :) - if you want to slap me and tell me to go back to Perl beginners school I understand.
Windows security window? I can't imagine why that would happen, based on the code you shared previously. Maybe there's some firewall software on the machine?
