Hi.

My client tried "Save Target As" and says she can't get that to work
either.  I thought of Save Target As when I left work last night.  Also
remember, "Save Target As" only works when you've got a link to download
something.  Sometimes, you have to click or hit enter on a button to do
a download, so "Save Target As" won't work.  So, we still need to find
and fix the mystery setting in IE 7.

Thanks,

It doesn't happen on all files to be downloaded, but it may ... on this
occasion... go into the context menu and use save target as...  (This is
fairly basic tech support knowledge.  In fact, Save Target As usually
works more reliably than merely downloading using save-as.)

Subject: [VICUG-L] Downloading AVG


Hello All:

I'm working with someone who wants to download the AVG Free Edition
Version 7.5.  She's got Windows Internet Explorer Version 7.

When she clicks on the link to do the download, all she gets is the
check box about closing the dialog box when the download completes and
the cancel button.  She doesn't get the run or save buttons.

I remember seeing this problem before and I do not know which setting I
changed to fix it.  Any help with what setting in IE 7 to check and
change for downloading files so my client can download AVG would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
