For some reason when ever I click on zip file online it now opens it. Before it used to download.

    How can I change this so I can download the file instead of it
    opening.


    TIA

    Open Windows Explorer, go to Tools / Folder Options / File
    Types, and scroll down to the zip file type. Highlight it
    and press 'Advanced'. Make sure that 'Confirm open after
    download' is checked. This is assuming XP. If you have
    Windows 9X/ME, double click on the zip file type, instead
    of pressing the (non-existant) 'Advanced' tab.
