Click YES to complete download

I keep getting a box popping up saying "Microsoft Internet Explorer (a yellow
triangle with an exclamation mark) Click YES to complete your download. A
little box with "OK". I'm fed up with this thing keep popping up every 2
mins and can't find out what it is or how to correct the problem. Can anyone
help please? Thanks.

My guess (if on dial-up) would be an 'autodisconnect on idle' setting.

IE, tools, options, connection tab, setting button, advanced button, see check for disconnect.

Thanks for helping - but I'm on broadband - did check what you suggested, but
everything there was okay. Still keep getting message. Get your thinking
cap on again if you can!!! Many thanks, Laura

You probably need some form of repair

To repair all system files, go to Start/Run, and type: SFC /SCANNOW

and if no help

If you run an XP "Upgrade"setup, from the original, or "Gold" version of the setup CD, and you have SP2 installed, it might go into
a setup loop, and you could lose your install. Uninstall SP2, BEFORE you Upgrade setup from CD (that lacks sp2 on it.)
