I can not duplicate this either, and did not get any prompts, just a
default page stating "The page cannot be displayed".  I am Internet
Explorer 6 (6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633).

Regards,
Joe Hummel

I can NOT duplicate this on IE 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2-030422-1633.... it
simply asks me to open or save the file... if I choose open with notepad

for example ... nothing odd happens... notepad says function not found.
If I try to save the file to disk it says "aux This filename is a
reserved device name please choose another name". I tryed searching for
what to open the file with on the ms extension search thing and also
came up with nothing odd...

What *exact* version of IE do you use?
