Guest Hollydoodledoo Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 I have been unable to download any file from any website. I receive a message on IE7 that Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site . The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. It hangs on Firefox. The latest was after installing Windows defender, I received this error message after it was checking for updates: Error found: Code 0x80240022. I couldn't find this error message on Microsoft's website. I am using Windows XP SP2. I have checked my internet settings and downloading is enabled in tools. I have also reset the settings, but that didn't work either. I did run %systemroot%\Windowsupdate.log file and think I see problems, but have no idea where to go from here. Any ideas? Thanks for any suggestions!
Guest Unknown Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Re: Unable to download anything First, go to control panel--internet options and delete your temp internet files and cookies. Then try. If still no go, what firewall are you using?

Disable your firewall and your current virus protection, see what happens. -- History is a vast early warning system Norman Cousins
