I clicked the 'Don't ask me again' box when I was downloading something and now I want to change back but I don't know how to change it back to the Save file.. window that has all the options of Open file, Save file or using my download manager.

Open the Firefox options dialog by clicking Options in the Firefox button menu or Tools if you're using the classic menu, then select the General tab. Select "Always ask me where to save files" in the Downloads section in the middle. (Startup, home page, tabs, and download settings)
