"Save target as ... " greyed out. Help!

[Dr. Mac]

Dear Forum Experts

( ... and all others! )

Greetings!

The following is not an "urgent problem" ... just annoying.

Recently, I formatted my hard drive and did a completely fresh install of Win98se, IE 6 SP1, went to Wiundows Update and have downloaded all the fixes and security goodies etc.

Everything works like a dream. But ...

You know when you want to download, say, a .pdf file from a web-site? You right-click and on the drop-down menu select "Save target as ... "

Well ... I can't do that because it's "greyed out"

I'm sure there must be one incredibly simple tweak or registry line I can modify to make this appear in the menu again.

Any suggestions ???

Thanks guys 'n girls.

Very best wishes,

Dr. Mac
