Default PBW Admins Or Other Computer Smart People

Can some one help me fix this problem. Every time I atempt to download a turn at PBW this is the error I get. I am now getting it everywhere I try to download something.



I have done the following to try and correct it:

1. unisntalled IE and reinstalled from a disk provided by MS.

2. Installed a download program, it works, but does not work at PBW.

3. Set all my IE security option back to defualt, and have tried every setting to maximum with no luck.

I am at wits end here people. The proble occured a month ago after a failed attemtp to access and FTP site. The FTP functions work fine, but I can no longer downlaod game turns from PBW.

If you have any firewall software running, turn it off and see what happens. Same goes for any antivirus or other software that either scans or filters your internet connection.

Beyond that...? Maybe grab a copy of Mozilla and see if another browser works...?

Downloading seems to work fine for me, so the site should be fine.

I have been through the security settings from top to bottom. They are not the cause nor do I have a firewall causing the problem.

Lets face it, it is just crappy MS programing that caused this problem for me. Hell even MS support can't figure it out. Hence the new disk.

And no, it is not a virus either, that was the first thing I checked.

Try installing the latest Java Runtime Environment from Sun Microsystems, at www.java.com IIRC.
