LeeK39 Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Hi, I am having trouble with downloading some of the attahcments off this forum. The download only lasts 1 second and is a 0kb file, which is obviously incorrect. I have been able to download some of the smaller files but like 260 kb but anything bigger doesnt seem to download properly. I have cleared my temp internet files and cookies, done a full system scan and run adaware and it still hasnt come up with anything, i added this site to my NAV trusted sites list aswell to make sure it wasnt that but it still doesnt work. Btw one of the attachments im was trying to get was the correct speakt chassis from Dragons post which everyone else seems to be able to be ok, so its gotta be my pc. Any Ideas?

Nick M48 Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 I cant download attachments unless I turn Norton Internet Security off, just need to figure out how to add the forum to my allow list in Norton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on 'options' at the top and a drop down menu will show and click on 'Internet Security' when the box comes up click 'Web Content' on the top tab, then under the list that it shows click 'Add Site' then type the address in. This should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeK39 Posted December 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 I have the same problem Nick they all work when NAV is turned off, but not when it is on. I tried doing what Cunny has said to do but it doesnt seem to make any difference. Hopefully someone will know how to try and sort this out because it is getting annoying now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickymoo Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 strange ...just downloaded everything with norton on . norton will let you down load because you selected the link yourself i've got windows firewall on and norton AV so the problem seems to be your system have you got a hidden firewall,spyware,worm or intruder detector running.

mickymoo Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 ok right click on desktop choose "NEW FOLDER" now right click on new folder and rename "HEAT" now select the link you want to down load and aim at the "HEAT"folder then close everything go to heat folder and it should be there. let us know how you get on.....
