For some reason, I am no longer able to download anything
from the internet. No Norton Anti-Virus updates, no
attachments from any kind of email, no PDF files posted on
web sites.

Anybody have any ideas what changed and why?

I ran spybot last night and corrected everything it found.
 
A new definition file has been issued by AdAware 2 day ago.
Spybot make sure you have version 1.3, no updates available for ver 1.2.

Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.

Henri,

Thanks for your input. I have downloaded both Ad-Aware anf
Spybot and have the current definitions.

However, this has not solved my problem.

Whenever I click on an attachment (Yahoo Mail, Microsoft
Exchange Server) and try to download it, I get the
following error:

Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site.
The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be
found. Please try again later.

It does not matter how long I wait, I can not dowlnoad
anything. I had to go to another computer to download Ad-
Aware and Spybot. I don't seem to have a problem with
attaching files and sending them.

Tim
