- Internet Explorer Won't Let Me Download Anything
My computer won't download anything from the internet. Ive changed my security settings for the internet to default settings - i have vista and internet explorer, and when I try to download it pretends to download but then it just disappears, I try to save to desktop or download folder and it isn't there it disappears. Feb 11, 2014 - Internet explorer will not download or open any files. Save files but when we click any of the options it simply does not do anything.
About a week ago or so, Internet Explorer 10 decided that it won't allow me to download anything. All download links just bounce real quick when clicked. Nothing else happens. No downloads dialog, no download popup, nothing.
So far (besides the usual reboot), I've checked the Temporary Internet Files (the only Google references I found that were even close to my symptoms had that as a solution) and temp paths to make sure they make sense. I've also cleared the cache. No change.
What else should I try?

Start -> Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Reset - see if that resolves.
Also check for any malicious or buggy addons: Start -> Control Panel -> Internet Options -> Programs -> Addons - disable anything that is unsigned or not from Sun, Adobe, or Microsoft.

Internet Explorer Won't Let Me Download Anything
One day I was downloading some wallpaper and the very next day I wanted to download something else and now I can't. The dialog box only shows cancel on it. It does not show run,save or open anymore. Just out of the blue it quit working. No matter what website I try to download from nothing happens. Internet explorer keeps saying that there is a problem with the website,which is hard to believe that all websites are having trouble at the same time. I have ran a virus scan,spyware, deleted temp. internet files and nothing seems to help fix the problem. I have a Dell Dimension E520 Desktop pc with Intel pentium D processor 820 with Dual-core technology and Windows Vista Home Basic. Can anyone Help me???? Thanks!!
