Problems with downloading

Before you do all that make sure you don't have any download accelerators active. The donut does not permit them.

Uh, what? I thought it did. If that's the case, it might explain some things.

I highly doubt she is able to view the site if she doesnt have the IE icon...

I'm pretty sure she means clearing her cookies didn't do the trick. ^_^;

In which case - yes, make sure you are not using a download accelerator - you simply click on the local link and the download should start automatically. If it won't work in Internet Explorer, do try Opera - it worked for me for a good 20 vids before it died. ^_^;

[BTW, what happens when you click the link? Does it try to open the video in windows media player? If that's the case, then you need to check your IE and WMP settings to make sure they aren't set to stream media. But using Opera instead should fix that sort of problem.]

I have used Opera. It didn't work either. I have download manager but it didn't start at all.

hmm. Look like I got another problems..
When I click download it can be download now but I can't see the video.
I use window medie 9.1.
And I use Opera to download and the download's done right after I clicked download. And it's has the red dot.
Look like I bring too much troubles for you guys... Sorry about that

It's like Internet Explorer - it's an internet browser you can use instead of IE - the benefits? You can resume local downloads. The downside? You lose all your favorites lists if you make a habit of using those - and if you try using both browsers you risk having Opera die altogether (if you're *very* unlucky like some people...)

I tried it for the resume option - it worked rather nicely for a good 4 days or so before it died. And copy and pasting urls wasn't too bad as long as I didn't mind relogging into my account after every page. ^_^

But I prefer Internet Explorer - it was made for windows and seems more stable to me.
