Unhappy File download stops after 10 sec

Why is this happening??

When I try to download something, the download will definitely stop after exactly 10 seconds.

This Problem started after installing Windows XP service pack 2.

I am using Internet Explorer with a dial up connection.

Please Help!!!!

Sounds like a firewall problem. Check to see that windows firewall is not blocking your downloads.

Check to see if you can download off the Microsoft site.

I have turned off the firewall and under Internet options, Privacy, I set this to accept all Cookies.

I can download files from Web sights like www.tucows.com
with out doing any changing to my settings but on Web sights
that require you to right click then (save flie as), it still stops
the download after about 10 seconds even with the changes above.


Thank You for your help.
