I have lost my "Save Target As" in Internet Explorer 6 on my Win98se home PC. When I right mouse click on a link, the "Save Target As" option is greyed out (for everything!).

I have uninstalled several suspect recent installs, uninstalled IE6 and reinstalled with SP1, but it persists.

Does anyone have any suggestions how I can fix this? Is there a registry hack perhaps?

Thanks,

Stuart

Aaargh! Yes the problem is caused by Content Advisor as the article suggested. I have Content Advisor enabled as I have a 10yo and a 8yo who also use that computer on the 'net.

(mumbles to self: "Who's @#$@@# idea was that? ")

I had assumed it was due to something I had downloaded, so I didn't look at the MS site.

I will just have to turn it off when I need to save something.

Thank you,
