862903	2010-03-01 22:45:00	:help: Using Firefox 3.6, I can't download programs off the PC World DVD as the GetRight v6.3E downloader steps in and aborts the download stating, "Sorry only HTTP or FTP protocols are supported". I have done everything I can think of, except uninstalling GetRight, to get around this problem. I have had no success. :badpc: Any solutions, anyone?	BaldEd (5136)
862904	2010-03-01 23:00:00	So what kind of sites are you downloading from, if theyre not http or ftp?	Speedy Gonzales (78)
862905	2010-03-01 23:03:00	why not just copy them straight off the disc in explorer??	GameJunkie (72)
862906	2010-03-02 00:10:00	So what kind of sites are you downloading from, if theyre not http or ftp? He's not downloading from any sites, it's a file from the DVD, it's not HTTP or FTP, it's a local file. Do what GameJunkie said - open the DVD in Windows Explorer and copy or open the files from there...	Agent_24 (57)

862908	2010-03-02 04:31:00	:thanks for the help guys. I did as suggested. Opened the DVD in Win Explorer, copied the file across and installed from there. Just have to remember that trick for next time.	BaldEd (5136)
862909	2010-03-02 05:05:00	McRuff: I have been experimenting with GetRight and the Special Keys. Found that "Shift + click" didn't activate the Click Monitoring Ignore feature, but "Alt + click" did. Can download files off the PC World DVD using "Alt + click". We learn something everyday. Thanks. :cool:	BaldEd (5136)
