Today, when trying to download a file, There is a screen which asks you to choose where to save it to, I accidentaly checked/unchecked a box which makes this screen appear. Can anyone help me get it back?

When I dl zip files too they save to my temp internet files. I know right clicking save target as is another way, but it's troublesome. And some autodownload like filefront will not solve this prob.

OK: Here we go:

This is how I do this in IE6:
1) Go to "Tools -> Internet Options..."
2) Select the "Security" tab
3) Select the "internet" zone
4) Press "Custom level..."
5) Under "Downloads" -> "File download" select "prompt" ( or if no prompt option, select "enable" ).

Works?
