Hi
I have a problem, when I try to download fx. exe. files from filefront or any other place the download stops after some seconds and then it tells me that it has blocked it, the problem started yesterday and I have never experienced it before.
The file I try to download is TM Nations Forever (free and legal)
Hope somebody can help me!!
IF you need more details I will try to answer them.
Thanks beforehand.
Edit:
Just tried to download the patch for 09 here on PCM to check if it was the file or download link but the same thing happened

Did you try using a download manager? |

No, but will try it, it just had not happened before so its kinda weird. I changed my DNS for some minutes and then putted it back on "collect automatically DNS-server address" can that have anything to do with it.
Sorry for miss spelling |

I have now tried using a download manager and it still doesn't work, The funny thing is when I press on download (ex Patch 1.0.2.3) It downloads for some seconds and sometimes a minute but then it stops and nothing happens. It stays on the same for the whole time and after an hour or so it says that its blocked or something :S |

Do you have User Account Control activated? If so, try deactivating it.

If you've any firewalls, try deleting them entirely. |

Did you try what I suggested? Try deleting your firewalls. |

Just downloaded the IE 8 and now it works like a charm.. It added something called smart screen or maybe it changed something, but it works now. But many thanks for the help |
