internet explorer wont download programs
« on: August 08, 2007, 02:16:58 PM »
i just got a toshiba satellite laptop with windows vista.  I've been having loads of small problems.  In internet explorer I havent been able to download firefox, or torrent files.  When i hit save the window just disappears, if i hit run it will look like its downloading but as soon as it says it downloads the whole thing the window disappears so i cant open the file. i also cant find the files anywhere when searching. 

i read some help online that said i should change the options in internet explorer only to find when i go to tools and down to internet options and click on internet options an hourglass appears for a second then goes away and nothing else happens.

anyone know what might be going on?
thanks for reading.

      Do you go to the location where the files are saved to and see if they are there?
