It's time to perform some Spring Cleaning:

Go to Start > Run and type: CLEANMGR.EXE , and hit enter.
This will start your disk cleanup utility. Make sure to cleanup
your Temporary Internet Files.

Clear you temporary internet files and try again.

This behavior is usually the result of an overbloated internet cache
(Temporary Internet Files). Open Internet Explorer and select Tools/Internet
Options/ General tab. In the TIF section, select the Delete Files button and
select to delete all offline files when that dialog box appears.
