I have recently started seeing the following behavior.  It only started 
recently and I can't find a way to fix it.  I hope someone out there knows how 
to fix it.

When I go to download a book from Bookshare it works fine until I get to the 
actual point of pressing enter on the Daisy link.  At that point the page 
indicates that it is pull in the file info but once it is done it then proceeds 
to download the book and opens the unpacker.  

In the past when it got to this point it would stop and ask me if I want to 
open or save the file first.

I checked the security settings under internet options.  It seems to be set 
correctly.

If I try to download any other file such as one of the rtf files from the 
volunteer validation page it works the way I expect.  It stops and asks me if I 
want to open or save the file.  

I'd like it to always ask me instead of automatically opening the file.

Any ideas on what is wrong?

Thanks.
