| 1274056 | 2012-05-07 09:27:00 | My system is WIN7. When I download programs they come down as binary files to my download folder. Is this normal or can the program come down so that it installs in the normal manner? How do I fix this? |

| 1274058 | 2012-05-07 09:37:00 | Before the download starts, the message on the download block advice thingy says "This is a binary file". When it down loads, the file appears in my Downloads file and if I click on it, the program installs. | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1274059 | 2012-05-07 09:40:00 | Sounds normal to me, it still installs. What browser are you using? | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1274060 | 2012-05-07 09:42:00 | I'm using Firefox. If it sounds normal well and good. | Bryan (147) | ||
| 1274061 | 2012-05-07 09:49:00 | You mean like this?? If you do thats normal. Its what I get here | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1274062 | 2012-05-07 09:50:00 | Yep, Firefox calls it a Binary File where as IE calls it a exe ( assuming its a exe file) | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1274063 | 2012-05-07 09:50:00 | what speedy shows there is normal | GameJunkie (72) | ||
