Ok, we're part way there...
I can run http:// addresses from the Run dialog box, but
my shortcuts in my Favorites folder still pop up the File
Download dialog box in the browser.
I checked the file types; I think I have all that should
be set; is there one with an application I still need to
do?
Thanks.
