Hi Sherry,
I think the problem with downloading the '.gpo' files is that the browser doesn't know what to do with it, and consquently tries to load it as a web page.

That is why it works if you do a right click and then a 'save target as', as you are telling the browser to simply copy it to your PC.

I think the best solution for the GPO notes is to put the '.gpo' file in a zip file, as the browser knows what to do with zip files (if you have an unzip program installed, which most people do).

(PS: I had the some problem with Fred several yseras ago, and I still have it, even though I reloaded my XP only last week. So I don't think it is confined to Fred's system).

Cheers ... Clyde
