Internet Problem

[ILballa]

Ok. I bought a new computer a couple days ago and it's awesome. The only problem is that it doesn't let me into some sites. Also, it won't let me download anything.

If you think you know what I should do, please let me know.

Thanks.

I want to download AIM, but it tells me that my current security settings don't allow me to download that file.

What's your Virus Protection software(if any)..

Sometimes that's the problem...

I went to the options and into privacy and content and put everything on low and it didn't help out. I also turned off firewall. What else can I do?

Are you the administrator on the computer? Or are you just a side account or guest account user.
