Thanks Alan. Correct, I'm trying to find a general solution that will work for end-user types who don't know how to change browser settings. I figured that somebody must have solved this problem before me. But thanks for the settings tip!!!

IE will also prompt you if you tell it to but IIRC you have to configure each extension and I find it extrodinarily difficult to find the menu where one does this. I believe it's on the file types dialog. But you seem to be seeking a general solution for the people who access files you provide? I don't think you can control this on their browsers. Or for yourself, just right click and chose the 'Save link' or 'Save target' option. -Alan ----- Original Message ----- From: Rob Finneran <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Redhat-List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2002 10:08 PM Subject: [OT] Software Distrobution using HTTP > Hello Listees, > > I'm having a problem because MS IE has the very annoying "feature" of trying > to run every type of file it thinks it can when I click on an .EXE or a > .XLS. > [snip] _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
