Hello,

I am aware how to define what happens, when I click a link leading to a "normal" file extension like PDF, etc. But what can I do with "custom" extensions (.vzf)?

When I click a link leading to a .vzf file, it opens it as text, instead of downloading it. I would love to be able to define that firefox downloads these files, instead of always clicking "save target as".

Thanks a lot!

Best regards Clemens

Separate Security Issue: Update your Flash Player or remove it using these links; Uninstall Flash Player | Windows {web link} Uninstall Flash Player | Mac {web link}

Note: Windows users should download the ActiveX for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the ActiveX.

Flash Player Version 32.0.0.156
