when i manually download a file on a website, am i suppose to see the
information bar first then allowed to download it or do i only see the file
download - Security Warning with following button run, save, cancel

right now I'm only seing the file download - warning with the following
button run, save, cancel. is the default setting when manually downloading a
file suppose to start at the information bar first?

In case of automatic downloads (initiated by a script in a Web site), you'll
see the Information Bar.

Setting "Automatic prompting for file downloads"

i visited the http://windowsxp.mvps.org website and i don't fully get what
it saying on the how to remove the autoplay handler handler from the
registry manually: here

here's the autoplay handler that i want to remove on my pc. i remove
musicmatch jukebox a year ago and the autoplay still showing.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\Handlers\MMJBPlayCDAudioOnArrival

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\Handlers\MMJBPlayMediaOnArrival

Substitute the actual AutoPlay Handler name where-ever the text <HANDLER>
appears

how do i substitute? i don't fully get what it saying. can you show me how
to do it.
