Default Sheer frustration

Morning all

I have XP service pack 2 on my machine .....if I try to download ANYTHING including anti virus software winzip etc i get the following message
"your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded"

I have searched microsofts knowledge base I have turned off firewalls and pop up blockers I have added the sites to allowable sites on my internet options and nothing is resolving this problem .. I need to update drivers .

Any help please .

Thanks

open internet explorer
click on tools
click on internet options
click on security
click on custom level
scroll down till you get to downloads in the security section
click and enable automatic prompting for downloads
click and enable file download

also firefox may not give you this problem i would consider it.
