Unblock An Option In The Properties Of Files Download
Sep 5, 2009
When i click a download link, i get the prompt:Save File, Cancel. i click save, and immediately the download will be cancelled, as i have checked in the 'download' tab (Firefox3.5)i can click retry and it will actually download it though, (to my desktop) and as it is downloading i can see the filesize increasing, but as soon as it is done downloading, the filesize becomes 0 bytes.also, when i right click the file, to the bottom of the properties tab, there is an "Unblock" option"Security: This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer. Unblock" When i try to open the file..."C:Documents and SettingsOwnerDesktopccsetup223.exe is not a valid Win32 application"..which makes sense, the filesize of it is 0 bytes.

I am running Windows XP in Parallels virtual machine on a mac because I need it for a college project.I have a zip containing what should be basically text files, for a programme called tLearn.The problem is, Windows would only let me extract some of the files, and some vital ones I need for my project are blocked.I tried following the instructions about right-clicking and clicking 'properties'- not straightforward on a mac- but the box that appears dosn't have tabs at the top, dosn't have a button to click for 'unblock'.It SEEMS that my alternative-right-click (macs dont have 2 buttons) is working, but if it's not, is there any other way to access the dialogue box I need? Also, the file I am trying to move/open/unzip dosn't seem to have an extension- it's just called 'code' and should contain just some stupid lists of letters and numbers I need.

Hello everyone. I hope someone can help me with this. I am trying to log onto a website that I was on yesterday and it is work related. However, tonight I am unable to do so on my desktop computer. I keep getting page not found. I also have a laptop and the site does show up there. My server is AOL and I have a Windows XP computer. My gut tells me when my desktop updated, perhaps my work site became blocked somehow by the firewall? I have no idea how to ublock it if that is the case.

I created another user on my XP home edition machine to isolate "business"
Logged on as my alter ego, I needed to open a Visio file. It asked for the master disk, and I proceeded to install (even though Viso is already installed for me to use as the prime user). I got a message that the Administrator had blocked this kind of activity.
How did I block it? And more important, how do I unblock it?

I have XP Pro sp2. I right click on the file I wish to unblock and in the generals tab, the unblock button is missing, but the security tab is still there. I am under the admin account with full rights. Where or how do I enable the unblock option so that it appears in the "general tab" of a files properties?

I am not sure if MS or IE or McAfee is doing this. I have been downloading
a lot of files for my PSP program. I have notices in properties it is
saying the file is blocked and I can unblock by clicking etc.
I don't know where this block is coming from or what limitations it is
posing. I want to unblock all of them at one time.

If anyone can solve this problem effectively, they need to be congratulated, because I have scoured the internet for hours without success.
1.I cannot open the "Properties " Dialog box in the "Add/Remove Programs" in the Control Panel. In Control Panel, I right-click "Add/Remove Programs" to open the "Properties" Dialog box. But, when I right-click, all that appears is "Open" and "Create Shortcut." The same goes for all the programs in the Control Panel, except a handful may display a 3rd option..."Explore." However, I can click to "Open" any of the programs in the Control Panel. My problem in this case is the "Properties "dialog box is not available. There must be a way to restore this command option.
2. It might be related in some way to Problem # 1. I cannot open "Add/Remove Windows Components" in "Add Remove/Programs." In Control Panel, I click to open "Add/Remove Programs, and click on "Add/Remove Windows Components." It will not open. Instead, this message box appears: "Setup was unable to open information file games.inf. Contact your System Administrator. The specific error code is 0x2 at line 0." I click "OK" and the next message box reads: "The application could not be initialized."

I have some hidden files on my pc. To view these files I click on a folder (any folder does it) click on tools, scroll down to options and change the setting to 'view hidden files'.But he has left my pc in a state such that when I go to tools the only options there are: 'map network drive', 'disconnect network drive', and 'synchronize'. It's as if my computer is on a network but it actually isn't.

I removed a program via the add/remove programs and it seemed as though everything was removed... no traces of it on the desktop or via the start up menu. However, browsing through, (is it still windows explorer?), I saw that the folder is still there and full of goodies. Can I just delete the entire main folder? I get nervous in and around there since something is always sharing something from somewhere else.

My friend has some important photos in his memory card which is in cell phone. They are not appearing in the cell phone. But, they are appearing in my PC when connected using the data cable (USB) and after checked the option "show hidden files and folders". They are reappearing in the cell phone after deleting and recopying the files to cell phone. My question is ,the "show hidden files and folders" is a option in windows based operating systems. But, why it is effecting the memory card. Why they are not appearing in the cell phone.

I have been trying to download America's Army (2.5GB) via http for a while now with no success. What happens is that the download just stops at the 2GB mark for no apparent reason. I tried using Firefox 2.0.0.3, IE6 and IE7 (which I downloaded against my better judgment) all with the same faliure. The first time, I tried to download it from gamearena.com.au (hosted by Bigpond) and all subsequent times, as unmetered content from my ISP (Inter node).I first googled the problem and came up with lots of questions but no answers. Then I emailed my ISP who are usualy outstanding for customer support (they haven't outsourced their call centers and don't plan to) but they too couldn't find a specific answer. They were however able to suggest that it was a Windows thing as there was nothing about my connection or firefox that would limit download size to 2GB.So the question stands; How do I get Windows XP Media center 2005 to allow over size http downloads?

I have a Dell Inspiron E1505 with Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3. I had Internet Explorer 7, and for about a month I would get a "Error: Operation Aborted" every now and then and I would have to open a new window, so Friday morning I downloaded Internet Explorer 8 Beta to see if it would remove the problem. It didn't, so I tried Firefox, but I found both IE 8 and Firefox to be annoying, so I decided to remove them both and go back to IE 7, but this caused a whole different problem. I think that I might have done something wrong while removing the programs because now IE doesn't work at all. Now whenever I click on IE, the IE screen will flash for about a second and then disappear.

I've become unable to download and save files to my machines (Windows XP SP2 and Windows 2003 SBS SP1). The download goes ahead, but at the point of writing the file to my local hard disk, I get the following error message, then the file is deleted!!!"Windows Security Warning Windows found that this file is potentially harmful.To help protect your computer, Windows has blocked access to this file."I wouldn't mind, but I haven't changed anything that would have enforced this, can't find any way of disabling / configuring this functionality and I trust the file and its source (a good example is the Grisoft AVG Anti-Virus software downloads!)

Pretty much the pc is becoming crippled I have run registryfix7 (had it installed) fixed what was listed, but no helpI have done a full virus scan and spyware scan with Windows LiveOneCare, nothing shows up.

My computer didn't come with an XP CD, just the manufacturer's restore CD which will wipe out all I've done in the last four years. So, if I backup (copy) all the files on my C drive, except the Windows folder (assuming that's where all the OS files are), to an external drive, then run the restore CD which will revert the computer back to the way it was when I bought it. Then download and install SP2 and copy the original files back to C.

Windows XP allows you to customise the appearance of Windows XP and has I think 4 different appearances you can choose from in the display properties under windows XP style with Windows XP plus installed. Is there any website that lets you download files to change the appearance of Windows XP without installing an extra program such as Window Blinds? I ask because I'm not artistic enough to create my own.

I use Windows XP SP2. Recently noticed that when I left-click on any of the icons of the Hard-disk drives and/or Devices with Removable Storage within 'My Computer', the 'Search' Option opens up by default instead of the 'Open' option, like in other folders. Likewise, when I right-click on the said icons, the 'Search' option is topmost & the 'Open' option has been relegated to second position. I would like the Search option to come first. Can't remember whether this was so from before or changed recently.
I have used Norton Partition Magic 8 recently to resize my partitions.

When I attempt to play or stream music from a web site, I no longer have the options of "open, save, cancel", I only have the options of "save" or "cancel." The dialog box indicates that "m3u" or m3ulist" files are an unknown type.. This wasn't always the case, at one point things worked just fine. How do I get my computer to recognize and "open" these files without having to "save" them and play them from the saved file? Once saved, they will play in Windows Media Player.
