Okay..here is my problem. When I "left" click a file that is in zip format, it automatically D/L and then opens the file ( never giving me a choice of where to put the file ). The only way that I have around that is to right click. But lately, there are some files that I cannot right click. How do I get the Zip file to d/l where I want it to without unzipping it automatically. Any other format gives you that little window allowing you to choose a destination ( ie. rar, ace, etc. ) Btw i am using windows ME and Unpack Pro for the files.
Thanks

Download an evaluation of WinZip (http://www.winzip.com/) it's a must have!:)

DELETE THE .ZIP FILE ASSOCIATION!!!!
then remake it
reason why is doing what it's doing is cuz some how some time, when you or some one using your computer Choosed and association to OPEN the file instead of SAVE the file
so by deleting it and recreating it, that will get fixed
