Security Alert Error Message
I am attempting to download Real Player and am getting the error message,
"your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded". I use Vista. I am the Administrator and have turned off the UAC, shut down my firewall, turned off my Anti-Virus, have opened up the Security box and enabled downloads, and anything else in Scripts and Active X. I added the website to the trusted list. I dropped the level to medium and I still am getting this error message. This is a new issue as I have been able to download things in the past but have had this issue very recently and just gave up on the download. I need this download for a training program so I need to figure out how to overcome this issue. Your help is greatly appreciated. |

See if you can download and install RealAlternative:
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/...lternative.htm Functions the same as RealPlayer without "phoning home" and it's much smaller in size.
