XP SP2 and Downloading Files

We have numerous pages that allow users to download textfiles. To invoke the
File Download Dialog, we use ASP, FSO and ADODB Stream. It worked fine in
SP1. In SP2, however, once downloading is done, the window that opened the
File Download Dialog automatically closes. Any idea what's causing this?
Where can I find information on SP2 in relation to FSO and ADODB Stream?

Thanks.

You mean XP-SP2 on the server where you do your ASP?

Then it seems OT on this NG, not serverside ASP related.

I'm new to using newsgroups and I wasn't sure where to post my question. Now
I realize that I should have posted it in the ADO Newsgroup ... I guess I
missed that when I was looking at the different newsgroups. Anyway, all I
need to know if anyone knows any information how XP SP2 affects FSO and ADODB
Stream, and if SP2 does affect the ADODB Stream Object, if there is a way to
work around it. I will just post my question in the ADO newsgroup. Hopefully
someone there can help me.

Hi,

Have you managed to find a solution to this problem? It doesn't just
relate to ADO - we are having the same problems with CSV & Excel files?

Thanks

Arthur
