Firefox Download Question

Hi guys,

Just a small problem with Firefox 2.

Recently, when downloading a file, I chose the option "Save as" rather than choose the program Firefox should use to open the file. Now, whenever I download a file, FF defaults to "save as" rather than giving me an option. Also, the download manager box doesn't come up anymore.

Just an update: I was able to solve the problem with some assistance from the FF message boards. The web article that details the process is here:

Basically, I just had to:

Tools --> Options --> Content --> Manage (button at the bottom) --> find the file you want to change and then click "Change Action".

Thx to Reflective and Dickvl for their help.
