Re: Cannot download ANYTHING!

Try this:

Check under Tools | Internet Options | Security. Click "Internet" just once
and go to custom level, once there, scroll down and verify if "Downloads"
are enable or disable. It should be enable.

Hope this helps,

Oops sorry. I only praphrased.

The thing just gives the OK-msgbox
"Your current security settings does not allow this file to be
downloaded".

Hot dang... this is annoying!
Any help will be appreciated.

My Windows XP HOME SP2 does not allow me to download ANY files from
the
outside, e.g. a website link. I have tried setting the security level
as
low
as it goes, and looked at the individual security settings, but it
simply
does not allow any downloads.

All other browser functions SEEM to be in working order.

The problem has suddenly become severe as this is the only machine
connected
to a payroll system and hence the only way reports can be downloaded.


And what happens when you try? Any error messages?
