You either have malware on your computer or you have security software
that is blocking downloads. Since we don't have any information about
your computer, that's as specific an answer as you can get.

It can be very hard for a non-technical person to know what to include
in a post to a tech support newsgroup. Here is a link that will help
you with that - http://www.dts-l.org/goodpost.htm

After you've looked at that link, come back with all the necessary
details and someone will help you.

That error sounds like it is involved with Windows Defender, which is a
*beta* product. "Beta" means software that isn't finished and is still
in the bug-checking phase. I don't use beta software on my Windows
machines, so I can't help you with Defender questions. You should post
this in one of the WD groups. Here's that information:

At this time, support for the beta version of Microsoft Windows
AntiSpyware now called 'Windows Defender' is being provided through the
