Downloads deleted by IE



I have 4 computer suites all running XP SP2 on various PCs. There are several
groups of users who use these to save files to their network share from the
intranet (using right click & Save Target As in IE).

However, for one group of users, in one room only, this fails. The download
seems to complete OK (you can see the file appear in the work area) and then
the file disappears as if deleted. This only occurs for one user group in one
room, the problem doesn't occur for this group in any other room which makes
me wonder whether it is a GPO setting at all.

Has anyone any ideas where I can look to resolve this? I would guess the
policy settings are OK as it only occurs on the one set of PCs for this one
group.

One thing I have noticed is that if the file is opened (instead of Saved)
and then the save is then performed using the file's default application
within IE (ie. Adobe Acrobat reader) then the file saves OK and remains in
the network share!
