please help me, when i download from planet emulation, i dont get the save/open box come up, it justs gdownloads into a temp file and then refuses to open the file, if i look in said ie5 content folder no file can be found.i am using WINRAR and i have also tried it on WINZIP

When i first discovered planet emu, the dowloads were no problem at all apart form the 299 second wait for disk 2 lol

I get the same thing...

.

I have a similar problem with ReGet Junior 2.2, it indicates NO FILE OR ACCESS DENIED for each downloading!

1.
...right-clicking on the link and 'download target as'?

This may not work because of cgi linking but you can
try =).

2.
If the file is saved in the 'temp' folder.
Make sure that the download is complete, and then try
to copy the file to another folder, and start it from
there.

Well, that's the only things I could think of.

yea i have tried going through the ie5 folders but as soon as its downloaded it opens the file, but cant due to it been a winrar /zip file.

ive tried downloading an emulator, this doess the same thing but then it pops up in WINRAR for me to extract

its very strange.... cos i dont get the options box save,open etc anymore everything just run from current location

First, I don't know which Windows you got, but I will try explain what you could do to solve the issue if it's WinXP (since that's what I'm using myself):

You've probably disabled the "Always ask before opening this type of file" in your IE and thus it does now always apply to the "Open" command instead of giving you the choice to "Save".

So access the menusystem in any folder window and go to "Tools->Folder Options..." and from there to the "File Types" tab. Browse down to the near-bottom of the list where "ZIP" extention is located, select it and click "Advanced".
Then re-enable the option "Confirm open after download".

Now if this (hopefully) solves the issue, it should now give you the opertunity to save the file instead of opening right away.

Good luck!
