Downloading Error in IE6

D

Dana Buck

Recent problem that just started up out of the blue...

Any time I try and download any file from a website (say,
for example ie6setup.exe from microsoft.com), I get the
error:

"Internet Explorer cannot download ie6setup.exe from
download.microsoft.com.
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet
site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot
be found. Please try again later."

It doesn't matter what I try and download, or when I try
it. Same error every time. I tried using the Microsoft
Online Support pages to no avail. Anybody have any
ideas? I am running Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows ME.
