Sorry.
That is a silly question, but it is so important for me.

Until the last week, when i was navigating inside internet
using the MS internet explorer 5.0 over Windows ME, all was OK.

Now when i click a video or audio link, it calls directly
to my Real Player software WITHOUT asking me if i want to
run this file from internet or save it in my hard disk.
I want this behavior, i want that the MS internet explorer
ask me using a window, if I want to run things from internet
or to save it into my Hard Disk.

If i try to use the RIGHT-CLICK and select the
"Save Target As " , I anly obtain a link to the real -audio in my hard disk, and not the comlete audio file.


I have tried all combination in the inernet options in
the MS Internet Explorer without succeed.

Please help
Thanks in advance (Sorry for my english)

it in real player in option to trun it off as a defualt player but you will have to start it manully So long and thanks for all the fish.
 
To force Windows ME to ask you to confirm opening files after downloading them, do the following:

Open My Computer, pull down the Tools menu and select the Folder Options command. When you see the Folder Options dialog box, select the File Type tab. Now, scroll through the list of file types to locate and select this file item.

(for Realaudio it's usually RA, RM, or RAM)

Then, click the Advanced button. Now check the Confirm open after download box.
