i usually just open attachments in my email, but i needed to save one to the computer, now it won't give me the option, it just automatically tries to save the file. How do i fix this?

You may have set an automatic action for that MIME type.

You can check that action in Tools > Options > Applications

You can delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder to reset all file actions.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
