Q1. Does "Download Manager" really appear when you save an email
attachment - I thought it was only for http downloads from web sites?
Not normally, at least I've never seen it in that context, and I've been
here since Netscape 4.7. But I haven't changed my prefs lately, so your
friend's prefs may differ from mine.
Thanks, his settings would be "default", hence I posted here to see if
anyone had seen this. It's very odd that he'd get download manager while
trying to save an attachment...
I think I only ever got it once, the first day I installed SM and I must
have turned it off - never to be seen again!
Q2. Best way to turn it off completely?
Try this:
Edit | Preferences | Browser | Downloads
(o) Don't open anything
(•) Open a progress dialog
(o) Open the download manager
or
(•) Don't open anything
(o) Open a progress dialog
(o) Open the download manager
Thanks, that's the place I thought it was, so I'll tell my SM friends to
turn it off.
I do understand the possible benefit of download manager for people who
download dozens of files at once, but it's confusing for non technical
users.
