ok another clarification.... sorry about not being able to get this across correctly the downloading process takes place by a program, not a user if you http://agent.microsoft.com/agent2/chars/genie/genie.acf it will pop up the window to download a file. if you http://www.eoe-magical.org/agent/chars/genie/Genie.acs it will open the file so the problem is the program is opening the file instead of just downloading it to the client. I have applied for a lic to distribute the Agent files from my server but they get opened instead of downloaded, so the calling program does not get the file written to the disk on the users machine.
