Off-Topic Windows Help...

You know that checkbox that says 'Always ask before opening this file' when you download something? Does anyone know where this information is kept? I accidentally hit the check, and now everytime I download a Zip file, it automatically opens it. Any help is appreciated...

Pictoratus, you're a life-saver. Thank you! 
I feel kinda dumb though, that was actually the first place I looked, maybe I'm staring at WC so much it's making my eyes go bad? hehe

Open 'My Computer', click on 'tools' on the menu, click on 'folder options'. In the dialog box click on the 'file types' tab and where it says 'registered file types' scroll down to 'zip', highlight it and click on the 'advanced' button. In the next dialog box, make sure 'confirm open after download' is checked.
That should do it.
