I/E 9 keeps prompting when accessing .exe files, to Run or Save...

Is there aw ay to get I/E 9 to stop prompting each time a web based app tries to access a .exe file saying would you like to Run or Save the file?

It happens on all versions of IE.  It is a built-in security feature to prevent web sites from downloading programs to your computer without your permission.  Firefox will only allow you to download but it does bring up the dialog also.

I doubt that you can disable it.

I understand that about other versions of I/E, but 9 does not give the option to change this..
No version gives that option and no other browser does either.

I am working with Microsoft support and they said that this is a function of i/E 9 and they are working on a work around for us now to get this resolved...
Ok.  I'm not sure I completely understood your question then.
