Another option, Danny, is to click Advanced from that file type
window and check "Confirm open after download." That way you can
choose to send the file on to Money or to save it to disk.

Hi Danny

Since I don't know what version of windows you are using I can' tell you
exactly where to go, but you need to change the QIF file association from
Money to what ever program you want to recognize it.

If you are using XP, go to your control Panel > Folder Options > File type
and scroll down to QIF. Highlite it and select change where it says Opens
with, and then select the program you want it to associate with.
