There shouldn't be a download icon on your desktop, what exactly have you downloaded? The file for installing the Full Tilt poker client is called FullTiltSetup.exe. You can download that file here:
http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/download.php
-
It looks like you have exe association messed up.
-
thats where i downloaded the first time, the icon on my desktop says download.php and when i click on it i keep gettin the same message "windows cannot find program.exe this is need for files of type php"
-
what do u mean by i have an exe association messed up
-
It looks like you have exe association messed up.
Disregard the above. I didn't see, it was .php file.
windows cannot find program.exe this program is needed for opening type php file
This is exactly what your problem is. Windows needs some program to open .php file.
.php file may come from different sources, so we need to know where did you get this file from, and what that file is suppose to be.
It's possible, that your .php file is Micro$oft PictureIt! file.
Try to open it with free Irfanview: http://www.irfanview.com/

What browser are you using?
When you go to http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/download.php how are you saving the file? Are you by any chance right clicking the "Download now" button and selecting "save link as"?
-
.php is the extension for a PHP-enabled web page. You're downloading the web page not the program. Just go to that page and follow the instructions without right-clicking or anything like that.

when i go to the fulltilt page i click on download now, then a screen pops up that says save on disk on open from here, i tried both of them and the same thing happened, i believe my browser is internet explorer
-
Can you give us an address of that web page, and what exactly you try to download from there?
-
the address is the same 1 that deerpark put in his reply, "http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/download.php" then from there i click on the red circle that says download now, then a message pops up and says save on disk or open from here, then after i choose 1 it will start downloadin 4 a while then when it looks like its finished a download.php icon will be on my desktop and when i click on it i get the message "windows cannot find program.exe"
-
When you click on that circle, it asks you, if you want to download FullTiltSetup.exe file, not .php file.
-
i just tried it again and it did the same thing, it dont say fulltiltsetup.exe it says download.php from download.fulltiltpoker.com, now i got the download php icon on my desktop again and it does the same thing when i click on it
-
You're left-clicking, or right-clicking?
-

-
