Can't download from Microsoft?

[Guest]

Whenever I try to download from Microsoft.com, I get an error message saying
that the page cannot be displayed. I was going to download the .NET
framework, but it never lets me. The same with other files. I can download
fine from other websites, I only get the problem with Microsoft. Also, for
some reason I was only able to download something from the Microsoft Office
website. If it helps, I think it could have something to do with owning a
pre-installed version of Windows (Service Pack 2)

I've got the 1448 and it has never crashed, even when not rebooted for weeks
on end ;-)

That was my question

What, exactly, are you trying to download?

 

[Gordon]

Well, say, things like .NET Framework, or IE7, or WMP11. Whenever I
attempt
downloading it, I get the same error message.

Can you post the FULL error message here?
