Winamp causing download errors

Justinic · 8th January 2004, 02:49

I searched a little bit, and didn't see this topic, so I made one. Ever since I installed Winamp 5, whenever I go to download an MP3 that is off of a website, instead of giving me the option to save, it automatically starts to download (I use the Opera browser). If I right click and do a "Save Target As", it instead saves the file as an .m3u file, instead of as a MP3. I never had this problem before, so I assume it's Winamp.

Never used Opera before.
Does it have it's own MIME configuration settings, similar to Netscape/Mozilla?
Or does it use the same config as Internet Explorer?

Does the same problem occur if you try downloading in Internet Explorer?

Also, what's your Windows OS and Internet Explorer version?
