Re: Error message when click 'save target as' .....



Hi Jan,

I'm trying to download my bank statement from Citibank. My previous IE
version has no problem but after installing XP SP2, the problem occurs.

I need your gudiance on some of the solution you provided.

1) Can you tell me how I configure the HTTP Headers within IIS for the
Virtual Directory (or for the Directory) that contains Office documents, not
to set Content Expiration to Expire Immediately ?

2) How I can get authenticated before trying to save the resource by
clicking Save Target As on the context menu for the link when I click the
link to visit the site ?

Thanks ! :)
