How to disable file download popup in Internet Explorer?

I was able to disable file download popup in all popular browsers except Internet Explorer.

This is the popup:

I thought this would do it, but I still get the popup:

Internet Explorer -> menu Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> select zone (example: Internet) -> Security levels for this zone -> Custom level... -> Downloads -> File download -> Automatic prompting for file downloads -> Disable -> OK -> Yes -> OK.

I am not interested in automating the popup, I do not want it to appear.

The OS is Windows Server 2003, Internet Explorer 8.

Solution 1:

I have solved this problem now. I hope the following information would help you:

Solution 1

Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Security :
Clear the 'Do not save encrypted pages to disk'.

Solution 2

Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Security > Custom level > Download :
Select Disable for 'Automatic prompting for file download'.
Repeat this for all 4 zones.

Solution 3

Open My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > File Types > PDF > Advanced :
Clear the 'Confirm open after download'

I believe this SU question might be similar to yours

You can use the addon iMacros. From the original question's answer:

... Internet explorer automatically downloads the file into a directory I choose without asking?

You can use the free iMacros for Internet Explorer addon. It supports download automation via >the ONDOWNLOAD command (just record the download sequence, then replay it via iMacros. It is a >macro recorder for the web browser.
