Actually I called Dell and figured out the problem. My computer wasn't sending an HTTP referrer apparently and that's why i couldn't download anything. Dell said it was because my internet provider has a set amount that you're allowed to download a month and that I probably went over that. I suppose that makes sense since I'm at college and I use the internet service they provide here. Has anyone heard of that? I just want to make sure that that's what the problem is. I'm not sure if that only applies to the internet because my peer-to-peer programs still download. But, yea, everysite I go to trying to download something, it always tells me that my computer isn't sending an HTTP referrer.

I have my own Subscription ISP..if I SWITCH my SCREEN-Names..I get a small dialog box that states my Service Plan in a rather simple way..if I go to the BILLING Page--my plan is explained more fully..

From what you have said I would CLICK---set program access and defaults..prior to Signing-ON...choose your Preferance.....Windows--NoN Windows--Custom--??

Once you have Signed -ON...Click Inter-net Options in the IE6 HomePage and CLICK----reset--web settings...

I do this when irregular Pages act-up.....sometimes it doesn't work.
