Try enabling FEATURE_RESTRICT_FILEDOWNLOAD (see
CoInternetSetFeatureEnabled). If that doesn't help, try implementing
IInternetSecurityManager, handling
ProcessUrlAction(URLACTION_SHELL_FILE_DOWNLOAD) and responding with
URLPOLICY_DISALLOW.

necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925

Hi Igor - neither of those helped. I handle both: URLACTION_SHELL_VERB
and URLACTION_SHELL_FILE_DOWNLOAD and respond wth dis-allow, but that
code doesn't get hit on that geo link above. I still get prompted with
a file download box :(
Any other ideas?

I just solved it -- had to implement IDownloadManager and handle the
call to Download(). I just return S_OK to pretend like I handled it.

Re: Determine which app handles a URL
Hi Dave,
Just ran accross your post and I just recently had the same problem. In my
case, there where some images I needed from a particular site but their
script dissabled the right-click context menu. I came across a Mozilla
pluggin which allowed you to selectively allow or block a helper app's or
scripts behaviour. I haven't looked but there may be a similar pluggin
available for IE. Just FYI since you where able to resolve it anyways.
