how can i make ie ask me to save files, instead of having them play automatically in wmp?

only does it with videos

You could always right click link>save target as.

i would, but on sites like this one (the one i was wanting vids from), it doesnt let you, and its a hassle to get the links from the source and put them on a diff page

This should be of some help.

Contains information on editting the registry so be sure and back it up before screwing around with it.

Media file information is half way down.

Internet Explorer Opens .exe Files Instead of Downloading Them

This one may be easier and more direct.

Not Prompted to Specify Download Folder for File
