Yea I tried it on the file download. I set file downloads to disabled. And automatic prompting for file downloads to enabled. When clicking on a download link it shows a message that says Yiur current seetings do not allow downloads. When I set dowloads to enabled it pops up a choice betwen open or save or cancel. Setting the automatic promting to either enable or disable seems to have no effect at all. Wish I new what it does as I use trusted sites as a valuble tool.
