Power Point Trouble

Many have had trouble downloading the Power Point files and after
researching the issue - the problem seems to be with Internet Explorer 8's
default settings which recognize files by content - not by extension. I have
been using PPT 2007 for the last couple of years and have recently been
using PPT 2010 Beta - and both saves files by compressing them - thus IE 8
recognizes them as "Zip Files" and will not open them - there are a couple
of ways around this -

1) Right click on the PPT icon on our site and select the "Save Target As"
option from the dialogue box - choose where on your computer to
download the file - after the file has downloaded - you ought to be able to
open it with PPT 2007 or PPT 2007 viewer -

2) Reset your IE 8 settings - go to "tools" in the upper right hand corner of
IE - select "Internet Options" (should be the last option in the dialogue
box) - Select the "Security" tab - In security settings, scroll down to "Open
Files Based on Content, Not File Extension" - select "DISABLE" -

3) OR - Download "Mozilla Firefox" and use it as your web browser - you
will have no trouble.

I have also been uploading PDF's of the PPT charts - great for viewing but
they are bigger - and have no functionality.

Also - I use a lot of different fonts in my presentations so you may find
some that you do not have, therefore they may not fit correctly on the
charts when you open them. I try to update our site every Monday with the
latest sermons - so please check back regularly.
