I can't download anything......

I can't download any apps from this site, even with my firewall off. Any ideas?

Howso?

What's happening when you click the download button? Make sure you're left clicking, and not right click -> save as, because those links redirect.

Yes, I'm left clicking. There is brief modem activity, then it stops. The screen does not change at all

Hmm.

Try accessing http://sourceforge.net. Can you get there alright?

Hmm.

Well, SourceForge is where all of our downloads are hosted. This is a personal PC?

Yes, personal PC......

Using Win XP Home, with Firefox 2.0.0.16, and no firewall. Pop-ups NOT blocked. Curious. I'll try with IE 6.0.29

Just tried IE......

and got the same result. Brief modem activity then nothing; same screen.

Perhaps this is a TCP problem on my end. However, I have no trouble connecting to other sites.

What if you try to access

What if you try to access SourceForge by it's IP address?

What if you try accessing using a web proxy like http://www.hidemyass.com/ ?

Yes! It worked!.......

Perhaps my IP or my ISP is being blocked; but I can't imagine why.

Many thanks.
