Default Outlook 2003 and .jpeg files

I unchecked the "Always ask before opening this type of file" box
requesting if I would like to save an attached .jpeg file to my
computer or open it automatically... as a result, .jpeg files are
opened automatically when I double click on them in an email (as it
should).

I would like that warning box to return (i.e., I would like to be
asked whether or not I want to save or open), but can not find the
setting to return this behavior to its default setting. Can someone
please point me in the right direction?

Thanks,


--Howie

Windows Explorer, tools, options, file type. Advanced button, confirm after
download option. You may need to click the reset button before you'll see
the advanced button.

Thanks...that did it. BTW, on my machine, the "reset" button is
actually labeled "restore". (XP Pro)
