Default another computer question

Does anyone know how to make internet explorer prompt you to save or open when you left click on a file link. I just upgraded to media player 10 and it now automatically caches and plays the file in media player. this sucks cause you can only download one file at a time.
I've done hours of searching and even changed registry settings, nothing works.

thanks

Dave

Not sure if I'm quite comprehending your query, but you could use a browser like Mozilla Firefox and use the right-click function to Save Link As. That'll support multiple d/l's (and it will prompt you to Save or Open as well), but then again IE is supposed to support that functionality also...
