Hey everyone!  
I have a quick question that has been annoying me for the past few days. Every download link for a ZIP file I click on, IE opens the download as opposed to asking me whether to save or open the file. I believe that is because I accidentally checked the box for “Do not ask for these types of files” or something similar to that.

Is there any way to revert back to the older setting where I am prompted to either open or save a ZIP file?

Thanks!
