File Download Dialog box is gone

[Julie]

Hello,

My sister has Windows XP Home Edition and cannot download
anything online. When the link to download is clicked,
the 'File Download Dialog' box does not pop-up. It then
appears that the download has begun because there's a
progress bar indicating it has, but the progress bar only
goes about half-way then stops. Nothing will ever
download completely. Also, if she right-clicks on the
link, "Save Target As" is disabled.

I've searched for hours trying to find the solution and
can't. Does anyone have any suggestions?

TIA
