File downloads automatically opening not saving. Help!

[CF93]

You know when you download a file from the net and you get the "open", "save" or "cancel" dialog box, there's a tick box saying "always ask before opening this type of file"......

Well I've managed to "untick" the box for csv files, and now it automatically opens them instead of saving them to my hard drive. Problem is I need to save the files not open them, and I can't find any way of turning that tick box back on again......

How do I do this???

IE6 I'm afraid guys....

This advice pertains to Outlook, but I'm pretty sure it'll be the same for IE:

When you open attachments, Outlook displays a dialog box that prompts you to either "Open it" or "Save it to disk". The dialog box also includes an "Always ask before opening this type of file" check box. If you clear this check box, Outlook will in the future always open that file type without prompting you. To reset the default behavior so that Outlook will prompt you to open or save the file type, perform the following steps:

Open the Control Panel Folder Options applet.
Select the File Types tab.
Scroll down to the extension type that you want to reset.
Select the extension type, then click Advanced.
Check the "Confirm open after download" check box, then click OK.

Nope, done that already, didn't work

Sorted.

Was in control panel > folder options > file types > select the file type > change > UNtick the "Always use the selected program to open this type of file" then ok...

Funnily enough, went back into the file type and that box has ticked itself again...but at least now I'm again getting the option to open or save when I try to download.

Cheers for help though guys.
