Problems with .rar files!
rylangere:
I am using Windows Vista. Thanks for trying, Engram! I just looked and I am also using Internet Explorer 7.
rwills:
While I use neither Vista nor Explorer at all (XP and Firefox is my own preference), you might try tweaking IE7's settings thusly:
Internet Options--Security--Custom Level
Scroll down to 'Automatic prompting for File Downloads' and set it to Enable.
Then OK and accept the 'Are you really sure you want to do this' prompt.
Also would suggest clearing Explorer's cache and doing so regularly:
Tools--Internet Options--General
In the category Browsing History, choose Delete
In the category Temporary Internet Files, choose Delete Files
Click Yes, then click Close and then OK.
Bloated cache of temp files can easily make IE7 behave buggy.
rylangere:
Thank you for the advice, rwills. Unfortunately, I tried what you suggested and I am still having the same issue. :(
Ok, so I just tried to download a .rar file from MTS2 and it did not work... However, I was able to install a .rar file from Insimenator! So, who knows!

I don't know if this will help your problems, but when you got to internet options, click on the programs tab, then Set programs and change autoplay settings. Programs and games should be "Ask me every time".
rylangere:
Thanks for the idea, caffeinated.joy. I checked the programs and game settings and it is already set to ask me everytime. It was a great suggestion though and if you or anyone else thinks of any other ideas, I'd be glad to try them out!
