| Apex Tech Fanatic | Also check your internet security settings - Control Panel --> Internet Options --> Security Tab --> then... A. Lower your security settings. B. Choose custom level and under the downloads section turn allow downloads to enabled.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Yeah, I was gonna suggest that somehow you've gotten locked out of admin priveledges. Not on purpose but thru alteration of a file or something. Browser is IE6? Maybe a repair of the OS or browser is in order. NOT A REFORMAT OR REINSTALL. Under Add/Change Programs sometimes you get a repair option. -MF |
