Re: I can't access a download link in a website

I tried some links in Firefox 2.0 and they worked.
Try them by opening them in new window/tab

| I'm running XP Pro SP2 fully updated
|
| I'm using Firefox 2.0 and when I click on a download link in just this
one
| website: http://fosi.ural.net/ , the main website page reloads instead
of the
| usual download window opening. This is the only website that I have had
this
| problem with; I have successfully downloaded from it in the past, but
haven't
| tried to download from it for a good 3-4 months.
|
| If I click on a download link in any other website I've been to, I have
no
| problem whatsoever--the little download progress window opens and my
download
| shows up on the desktop
|
| I tried using IE, and encountered the same problem. A friend had no
problem
| when he used Opera, so I installed Opera to see if it would work---I ran
into
| the same dead end--- the main website page reloads instead of the
download
| window opening and showing the download progress.
|
| Why just this one site? What sort of thing could possibly be causing
this
| problem? What info would you need about my installed programs, system
| configuration, etc to give me some clue as to how to proceed?
|
| Especially, why would this happen with not just Fire fox and IE, but
also
| with a brand new Opera install with no program setting adjustments
| whatsoever?!
|
| This is the ONLY problem I'm having with my system----I run multiple
| antispyware/malware utilities, V-Com System Suite for antivirus and
firewall
| protection, don't get any error messages in Event Viewer, and have
absolutely
| no other known issues with the system or any other website that I've
been to.
|
| Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated--I haven't the least
idea
| as to even where to begin looking for the cause/cure to this anomaly
