Downloading Applications

[MarkyP05]

Hi, wonder if anyone can help...

...i am having problems downloading application programs from the internet, when i click on the file to download it a screen comes up saying i have invalid credentials ( the same white screen that comesa up if you try and access a website offline - but with a different message), i tried using firefox but again i was blocked with a message saying 'the object was blocked'

ive gone through all my internet properties and settings and cant see anything wrong there.

can anyone throw some light on the issue?

Well, it would maybe help if you gave us a specific example of a program with which you were having problems.
