I have the same problem AFanciscoii has, I found that every time I try to
down load any type of file from the net I get the same reaction, the download
window opens and then popup warning shows " INTERNET EXPLORER CANNOT DOWNLOAD
EXPLORER WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THIS INTERNET SITE REQUEST SITE IS EITHER
UNAVAIBLE OR CANNOT BE FOUND PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER" Can you please reply
with some kind of answer to this problem
 
Hi walus :-)

As you did not include the post you are referring to, nor your version of
windows or IE, I can only give some general suggestions. Such errors can
also be caused by a DNS failure. Try the following and see if they help:

Cannot find server - DNS error
Line 68 right hand side.

Reboot when done.

Do a Search of your hard drive for a file named HOSTS with no
extension. (Not Hosts.sam)
Make sure Windows is set to show hidden files and folders and is NOT set to
hide extensions for known file types. (In Wondows Explorer.)
If HOSTS exists, rename it to HOSTS.OLD
Reboot an try again.

I too am getting the same error message when trying to download anything from
the net. It is getting very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated.
