I'm inclined to think it's a setting in Vista, and not something askew with the browser settings. I spent a fair amount of time Googling for fixes, but came up empty.

As far as Firefox actually working to download .lit files, I tried it again last night, and it wouldn't let me. I was pretty sure I had tried it a few weeks ago and it did let me, but still sent the file to a temp folder, but either way, Firefox doesn't solve the problem.

What I need, really, is to find the setting that will make the dialog box prompt me for where to save the file to. I'm guessing its not that easy, but in essence, that would solve the problem.

RandallFlagg (hey, a fellow Stephen King fan!), thanks! I'll try the add on you gave me the link for...can't hurt, right?
