I solved it finally and i am so disappointed from MS and their non
sense
Here is what i did if anyone have the same problem.
Default Domain Policy was corrupted some how i dont know why.
i created a new GP and set the same settings from the Old domain policy
same settings with no changes.
Disabled the old GP
and Linked this new GP as the default Domain Policy.
secedit /refresh then Restarted the DC and restarted one of the clients
to get the new GP settings.
everything works like a charm.
download works, Office works perfectly.
My conclusion is that my GP was corrupted or had some extra keys which
wasnt available to be configured from the GPEdit window but was
effective and doing the damage i had.

Good luck everybody :)
