| 191028 | 2003-11-11 16:20:00 | For a while now when I click on download sites and try to download drivers I have been getting a small graphic with a white cross on it replacing my mouse pointer.Nothing happens. Repeated clicking and trying right click options may bring a page error message. The latest example is the Nvidia site. No problem until I click on the download link. This applies to all links to downloads. Another site I am trying to download from is Panasonic.com. No problem until I click on the link to d/l latest driver. Seems to be a case of "Look, but don't touch." Jack. |

| 191032 | 2003-11-11 18:34:00 | Hi Jack, What happens if you click onthis (ftp://download.nvidia.com/Windows/52.16/52.16_win2kxp_english_whql.exe)? Does the download box popup? The site seems to be working ok , I just tried it now. Cheers Steve |

| 191033 | 2003-11-11 18:56:00 | Thanks Steve. When I clicked "Here" The little graphic with the white cross appeared under the mouse. Then I disabled "propel accellerator". Everything worked!!! In case you don't know. Propel Accellerator is a program that I am paying IHUG for. It is supposed to speed up downloads. Looks like all it does is stop downloads. |

| 191035 | 2003-11-11 19:51:00 | Check the MS information at this link support.microsoft.com Have you any sort of download manager installed such as GoZilla which might be interfering with downloads. Disable all other programs including Antivirus to check if they are affecting downloads. Try a repair on Internet Explorer ControlPanels/Add remove programs Select IE and Add/Remove and then repair. |

| 191037 | 2003-11-11 19:59:00 | Yes working well. And I have cancelled Propel. It didn't speed anything up anyway. | JJJJJ (528) | ||
