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



Exactly same problem as DiDi is happening to me. I have same IE6 version,
have same problems with my bank statements, same problem with attachments in
Hotmail, etc. impossible to download. A neighbour and a number of foreign
friends tell me they are also facing similar problems. It looks to me that
there is a general bug here, so why is there not a solution provided by
Microsoft? Would appreciate to be kept informed on any progress you might
have in the meantime. Thanks.
