gluedtopc Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 My PC is having problems downloading Hotmail attachments(pdf, xl, word) The box opens, and says "Getting file information" and the file slowly goes across from left to right. There is no loading bar, or info as to how long the download will take. It's the same with Yahoo as well, I've got XP Pro and IE 7, never had problems until recently. Any ideas what is wrong? Should I upgrade to IE 8 or 9? Ta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dosxuk Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 You should definately update to IE8 if you're still running IE7. IE9 isn't available for Windows XP. Do you have a virus scanner installed? What happens if you right click the link and choose "Save Target As..."? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gluedtopc Posted July 9, 2012 Author Share Posted July 9, 2012 I've got AVG. If I save target as, it says can't find, and just displays the explorer logo on the folder I save it to. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
