NZB Wont Download and go to SABnzb

This started yesterday and I'm not sure why. I have done nothing on my end to change any settings. When I click on an nzb file this is what happens (just to be clear).
1) Click on NZB
2) It ask's me how I want to save. I hit open (Doing SAVE AS does not change anything when I try that)
3) The NZB downloads and then gives me an error saying "nzb couldn't be downloaded".

I'm not sure if it has somehow been blocked, but I would really appreciatte some help on ways I can test to see what's wrong, or a potential work around.

Thank you very much!

"Click on NZB"
Where? On a website? In Windows Explorer, OSX Finder?

Sorry about that. Using Explorer.

www.usenet-crawler.com and a few others are the one's I use.

All give same results.

One more thing to note. I just tried it on Firefox and everything works fine. Looks like it has something to do with IE? I haven't installed anything lately. Could it be specific to my work network? I will try this again with IE when I get home and let you know my findings. Thanks!

Each browser has its own associations with file extensions, so maybe IE is confused.
Since I avoid IE as much as possible, I cannot be of much advice.

HAHA...fair enough man. I just got home and it does the same thing here, so I know it's not work. I think we both knew that was the case, but for anyone who runs into that down the road, NOW YOU KNOW :)

I will delete and reinstall IE and see what happens. I try to avoid IE as much as possible, but my work requires that I use it for everything......yeah, I know.
