Re: [OT] Software Distrobution using HTTP

IE thinks it's being helpful.  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.
