Hi,
Unfortunately that screenshot doesn't tell me anything.  8-)

Can you try another using Firefox and without all the other programs in the background?

I'll break down my problem:

Three months ago, I tried downloading from the site. I couldn't. I got a "This Page Connot Be Displayed" message. At first I suspected a busy server. After a week I gave up on this idea. I went to the Access Prob page

This is in response to the Access Prob page:

My computer has been rebooted several times since this problem came up.
I have disconnected and reconnected my service.
I do not believe that I have ever used a download manager.
I have internet explorer version 6.0.2900.2180
I tried firefox but no dice
Checked Zone Alarm, seems fine.
I dont have opera browser
I am not using a proxy
I did the tracert thing, no *s or timeouts

Still nothing

PS: What the screen shot is showing is that I can get the pop-up window, but can't download.

EDIT 5/11 Not meaning to sound impatient but... Any Ideas?

I already tried firefox. It didn't work so I uninstalled it.

Edit: Basically it was the same error in Firefox

I've had the same problems as you for the past few months. I tried to download Todayshorse's repaint for the AFG Kingair B300 and it wouldn't let me, so I tried everything. The only thing that worked is downloading GetRight and using that to download within IE7. I'm downloading it as we speak. Hope that works for you  8-)

Not big at all. A couple of MBs if I remember correctly.

The reason I ask is I have dial-up :'(. The usual download speed is 3-4 kbps. But it wasn't that big... 4MB. I'll it check it tomorrow. Hope it works!

Seems like your problem is connecting to an FTP server.

We have temporarily switched back to the FTP server for non members while a problem is being fixed.
