BuildID:    2001110209

when i click on any link and that triggers execution of a cgi script, apop up
window shows up asking if i want o save it or want some application to handle
it. I don't have any helper applications setup. But i never had any such trouble
with any of the older builds. Although it doesn't effect the browser. I mean
everything works well except it pops up these windows for most links i click on.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.http://www.smithbarney.com
2. Click on logon and you will see a window pop up and ask if you want ot
download or save it to the disk.
3.

Actual Results:  A pop up window shows up asking what i want to do.

Expected Results:  should not ask for all cgi scripts. Cgi scripts are a part of
every website and

this happened only with that puticular build. I installed a more recent build
from nov 15. and the pop up window doesn't show up unnecessarily now.

I agree that this issue should be closed.
