When I try to download a file, I get a bunch of garbage in the browser window. Whats up?
Most likely, your browser’s failed to recognize the particular file type. Instead of storing it to disk, it tried to open it like an HTML document. Most browsers should recognize ZIP and SIT file types, but you need to make sure that your browser saves these to the disk instead of opening them in the window. For Netscape Navigator 2.0 – make sure it recognizes the .SIT and/or .ZIP file types. These should be entered as something like: application/x-sit, Extension SIT For Netscape Navigator 3.0, make sure the “Save to Disk” option is checked for the SIT and ZIP file type under the “Options…General Preferences…Helper” tab.
