DOwnload head aches

I'm using a download accelerator and it keeps getting a "Cannot connect" message, and every time I download anything manualy, I keep getting a corrupt download, this only started today for some reason....

Any Ideas?

No further than the thickness of a shadow

Process of elimination. Have you downloaded anything with out using it? If yes, conecction is ok, if No an internet problem.

If you downloaded ok, try the same download again with the accelerator, renaming the file so you have both. If it is corrupted, then there is a problem with the accelerator program. Also, some site won't let you use multi downloads to get files as well. Let us know what happens.

Strange My Virus Protection dosent effect my downloads but i have to have my fire wall off. Also When i download a mod directly to flmm.zip or somthing the downloads never finish. they stay on 100% and i have to delet the mods. When i normal download and trie to drag it on FLMM it says its couropt and my PC freezes up for 10-15 seconds. I found Out that i Have to Download now om my dads laptop and transer the files over with a high capacity USB meory stick. And if its A low Capacity Stick i get Another COUrupt Data error. Also My it could be tat my c/: drive is filled up to the max and all new games like FL an RONT&P(Rise of nations thrones and patrionts)are on the E:/ Drive. Could this be whats slowning down my pc and afecting the downloads???

I used to use a download accelerator, now I use Firefox, but I found that your firewall always messes up your download accelerator. If you turn your firewall of, you may be hit by spyware, but your accelerator should work.

Everything is nothing, but nothing is not everything.
