How to configure your Netscape 6/4/3 or Internet Explorer 6/5/4.01 browsers:

To configure your auto-downloading, go to the Configuration Manager control panel and add a new item under the Receiving Files:File Helpers item.

Set the item contents as noted below. You can also change the Receiving Files:Download Options:Download Destination option to "Always use download location from appropriate file helpers" from "Always download files to the download folder."
