Win XP-No luck dnld'g Vassal engine, ok on MAC

Running Win XP, havingNo luck downloading the Vassal engine that I’ve installed on my newer MAC.
Prob.: Every time I choose WIN download option, Explorer closes when finished and *.exe file is not found.
Help?

Explorer may have changed the .exe extension to .zip. It will do that with some files. I don’t know why as I’ve avoided using explorer for years. You may be able to find it in you download folder. Just change the .zip back to .exe.

I’d also recommend trying a different browser. Google’s Chrome browser is far superior, imo.
