help with downloading files Hi. Sometimes when I double click on a file to download it, instead of the file beginning to download, I get an internet explorer page which opens up and goes onto an adult content website. I want to download files, but not get all this rubbish. thanks. |

Your trying to download spam, you need to get familiarised with fake and spammed files, as well as one's that are infected with viruses... WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

Run an Anti-Virus scan and also a Spy-ware scan and see if you have a trojan or similar that keeps directing you to the IE page... Here's some good freebies.... Anti-virus: avast! AVG free Avira Antivir Antispyware etc: ad-ware __(FREE) Spybot - Search & Destroy __(FREE) AVG Antispyware (formerly Ewido)

Yikes!! No, NOT AD-WARE Ad-ware is actual spyware and can really mess up your computer. The correct version is AD-AWARE. AWARE not WARE for the last part after the hyphen. Quote:
