    You set this for each file type, e.g. for .zip
    Explorer-View-Folder Options-File Types
    Find the .zip association (may be WinZip File)
    Edit, (or click Advanced on ME or XP) and check the "Confirm open
    after download" box

    The path to Folder Options may vary according to your operating
    system. It may be:
    Explorer-View-Folder Options
    Explorer-Tools-Folder Options
    Start-Settings-Folder Options
    Start-Settings-Control Panel-Folder options.
