This is at least partly a RePEc and not an IE6 issue. I also use IE6
and the "right-click-and-save-as" option works in most circumstances,
but not from the RePEc download pages. To download from RePEc you
tick the file you want and then click the "download" button - the
right-click option doesn't work. If the file is a .hlp file, IE6
will ask whether to save or open, but if it's an .ado, it recognises
that the file is text and opens it in the browser window.
