Are you downloading via another browser than internet explorer?? I had this problem when I did mine on AOL, I was told to right click the icon, go onto properties and open with Internet Explorer and it was fine. Diane

Not sure if this will fix it, but maybe your browser is blocking pop-ups? In which case, hold down the "control" key when you click on a link.
