hello, you can change the default action for certain filetypes in firefox > options > applications.

Applications panel - Set how Firefox handles different types of files

Thank you. but changing the default action changes the program the file is opened with. My problem is that I can only "save" the file and I don't have the "open with" option in the down load window which saves it to a temporary file. This happened after I accidentally checked the "do this automatically for files like this" box when I had checked the "save file" instead of the "open with" box. Any Ideas on how to get the "open with" showing again? Thanks again for your help.

does it work when you set the default action for this filetype back to "always ask" in the options panel i've described before?

No it doesn't. I only see the "save" option not the "open with".

I'm sorry. It does work now. I had set the always ask option for the wrong type of file. It now works. Thank you very much for your help.
