IE6 org. annoyance

[trodas]

I have this little question and problem and I don't understand it. I choose to play all videofiles using the BSplayer, and not "into the MS IE". Therefore, when the first time I click on a wmv, rm, qt or mpeg file it ask me if open or save, and add there a option (ask again next time).

Deselecting it and choosing the open in all cases make this dialog go away forever

EXCEPT for the *.mpeg case!!!

So, the question is - how to get rid of THIS particular problem (questioning window) surfacing there over and over again, unlike for other video files... Anyone know?

(it does go away for one particular IE window, when choosen to remember that, but as soon, as I close it, it "lost" this choice again and next time it again ask - unlike the wmv, rm or qt files - played in BSplayer using the RealAlternative and QT Alternative codecs)

This should be under the Windows 2000 thread, don't you think trodat? Or you ARE using xp after all the bashing here...

I does using both (7 my computers using XP, one Win2k server and one main PC is W2k SP2 (heavily modified) now running), therefore I did not bashing* but presenting my points of view. Feel free to show me some solutions instead of bashing my post

*bashing is defined as nonargument smearing something down. If you use arguments why you did not like someting, it is not a bashing but instead criticism. Sometimes in my case even contructive, as I find a way how to fix few problems for me

BTW, it is very interesting, but the problem is in XP 1.0a, while it is absent using the very same IE6 into Win 2k (SP2 in this case)

(translation - W2k again gaining points in my eyes )

Oh, I figure the mpg/mpeg problem with annoing requesters out. Dunno why, but for these two types of files one have to go into the filetypes menu, modify the default actions for them and disable manualy these checkmarks "ask about opening" each time and problem is gone.

Dunno why that won't work from IE as for other formats, but what the hell - it does work now, satisfacted
