Firefox "Do this automatically for files like this from now on" issue.

Doesn't work >.<!

I have been experiencing this problem for a while now. In firefox, if I download a .zip file for example, I check off the "Do this automatically for files like this from now on" option. I want it to autosave the files to my computer. However, if I go to download another .zip, it asks me again. Is anyone else having this problem?

I have tried a fresh reinstall, and even with no plugins, this happened. So I know it isn't the extras I have installed

. I am using Firefox 1.5.0.4

.

A little help

Besides, it's only saving an extra click.

Actually I have had the reverse, it stays checked and I won't want it checked. Though even though it shows up checked, it obviously is asking so it is ignoring the check. Hehe. Odd thing.
