    I can't get it.  I really am sorry this is quite confusing.  this is what I get when I try to save link to put in the winzip to save it

    http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=76916.0;attach=8585

    any other action won't work either I tried saving I tried open in external application, and the usual click and download it just won't work

    You must have the patience of Job to deal with this stuff. I on the other hand lost all my patience raising 5 kids lol

    It's the challenge that keeps me going ;)

    When I click on the link you posted I just get the attachment wanting to download.

    Can you right click the link, http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=76916.0;attach=8585

    And choose save or save as and try to get it to your desktop?

    Or right click it and copy it and open it with your zip program?

      Yea I'm getting ready to sign off for the night.

      How about if you boot into safe mode with networking. Can you then download normally.

      Get to safe mode by restarting the computer and tapping the F8 key until you get to the options screen. Choose safe mode with networking.

            I am in safe mode and still not able to save.

            Microsoft Vista people called me ealier this evening, guess they were embarrased because they couldn't fix the problem when I called them Saturday morning, and so are gonna do it for free. lol.  They are going to have a tech call me tomorrow around 10ish.  I was hoping we could have found it tonight.   I will let you know what transpires.  This really is an odd problem. 

            Thank you again for all your efforts.  Have a good night
