What browser are you using? If IE, when you attempt a download do you get a
Yellow bar just below the menus? If so, right click on it and click allow.
Do you have any firewall, antispam, popup blocker installed? If so, try
disabling for a moment before going to the site or attempting to download, if
the download is then available check the settings in the disabled app for
configuration options top allow the site.

Hello Brian

Im using internet explorer 6 and firefox. No I don't get that yellow bar. I
have a firewall and i've already tried disabling it. Popup blocker? no, only
the one included in windows.

The problem continue...

You may want to ask this in an IE or FF specific ng, if it isn't a firewall
issue then it must have to do with browser security settings.

I am getting the same error message.
All other sites are downloadable, but not Microsoft.

Did you figure anything out?

Not sure about this but it's something that you may wish to try...

Internet Explorer / Tools / Internet Options / Programs / Manage Add-ons...

Check to see if Microsoft Genuine Advantage Validation is enabled. If not
enable it.

I assume you have a genuine copy of Windows!

Best wishes,
