Error Downloading file from Internet Website (XP SP2)

[Matthew Clark]

Has anyone noticed a problem downloading a document from a website,
Hotmail included with a message stating that "Internet explorer cannot
download ..... {Website IP}. Internet Explorer was not able to open
this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot
be found." Even though the website is legit and so is the file? This
is occuring on a XP SP2 machine.
I have some students that are reporting, and I have seen, an error
while trying to download any office attachment while in Hotmail. The
error states, " Internet explorer cannot download ..... 64.4.56.250.
Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The
requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found." I have seen
other posts on this in searching google, but have not found a valid
solution. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to fix this?
