FireFox Question

I havent been able to figure this out and its quite
annoying.

Lets say i go to install a program from the web i get the
option that says.....

You have chosen to open
PROGRAMNAME.exe
which is a: Application

What should firefox do with this file?

open with (which is greyed out and not selectable)
save to disk

----------

I dont want to have to save it to disk everytime and then
run from there. Its pretty lame. Is there a way i can change
this so i can just run it like i normally would from IE?

dunno, but this is very, very handy, and kinda
helps a bit.. you'll still be saving the apps, but you can
double click them (in the firefox window) once they're done.

No. Remove FireFox now. It cannot even use proper english.

"which is a: Application."

why don't more people use opera? its lush. they do need to
sort out the widgets tho. they're a good a idea but poorly
designed..

its such a shame the good people of firefox are too busy
making stupid cartoons slagging off other browsers, when
they could be making firefox a bit better.
