Well... Somebody was right telling you that it could be the firewall.... Is it preventing these downloads? Which security level is it set to?

From what source are you attempting to download?  Is it P2P only or is it any kind of download?

Actually, tell us where the file is located and what kind of file this is...

I am having the same problem.  It doesn't matter what kind of file or from where it's from.  For example, I tried to download Spybot from Download.com.  My computer acts the same as described here.

Thanks
