What do you want to do with progress.htm? (progress page fails when downloading a file using FTP over HTTP using Internet Explorer 11)

Articles techniques ID: KB91789
Date de la dernière modification : 7/5/2021

Environnement

McAfee Web Gateway (MWG)

Problème

You disable MIME sniffing in Internet Explorer 11, and then download a file by FTP over HTTP, which triggers the progress page. You see the pop-up window:

What do you want to do with progress.htm?

Cause

Internet Explorer 11 tries to open the progress page instead of running it because of the disabled MIME sniffing.

Solution

The option for Enable MIME Sniffing is Enable by default. If you have it set to Disable for security reasons, you must change it to Enable to display the progress page.

McAfee recommends that you enable MIME Sniffing only for trusted sites.

The MIME sniffing setting is under Internet Options, Security, Custom level, Miscellaneous, Enable MIME Sniffing.
