Trouble Downloading LW....PLEASE HELP!!!!
 

I AM HAVING A REALLY HARD TIME TRYING TO DOWNLOAD LW!:bangh:
Okay i have had limewire on my other computers in the past and have NO problem downloading the software (the free version). i have a new computer and am trying to downlaod it and it will download and then say there was a problem downloading. It say "Windows has found a problem with this file" then down at the bottum of the box it reads.."This file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that varifies its publisher."
Anybody else ever have this problem????
any help would be greatly appreciated. :aweof:

i tried that and still nothing. it wont let me download it. Am I doing something wrong........or is there something that I amd just not getting here?? Thank you for the help though! i do appreciate it.

Did you try this...
In your browser. Go to options. Internet options. Security. Set to default. Also your firewall may be set wrong. If worse comes to worse disable for the download. Hope that helps.

I have tried that as well and disableing it all togather! I just cant figure out what it is????:computer2:

Try a different browser..ie if you have firefox try IE, visa versa...
If that doesn't help Follow Lotr's advice on downloading the "other installer"

That doesnt work either, and when i try to download the other version it says there was a problem reading the file. Any other things i can try??

i dont know if this helps any but when i try to download anything else, it brings up a NSIS error. does that help solve my problem any??

See if the tips in this link help...
Why do I get NSIS Error - NSIS

And what worked for this person...
NSIS error? Do I have a hardware problem? - TechSpot OpenBoards

Still nothing?? I Disabled my firewall and my AVG antivirius and it still wont allow me to do anything.

I may have a suggestion that may help. however I cannot sure it will work.

OK, if this is a recent problem, say less than a week, you may be able to get your computer to restart at a trouble free restore point. I know XP has saved restore points and I sure Vista has them too (BTW you have not said what your O/S is).

The chances are that you, or someone you know, downloaded or installed something that has triggered off this practically unsolvable windows problem, so the only way out is to initiate a safe saved restore point.

I am runnin XP with SP2. I really do not have an appromaxite date to when it started, i have not had any trouble downloading things before untill i tried with limewire and now it seems anything i try to download fails because of the first problem or the NSIS error comes up. I do appreciate all the help from you guys as it is past my computer troubleshooting skills!
