Help Please!

I thought of another thing that it could be. It could be your user account settings in Windows. If your brother is the one who set up your Windows XP profile, he may have set it so that you can't install programs. He'll have to give you wider access privilages. Whoever is set as the Administrator on your computer can give you that sort of access. I'm just asuming that person is your brother.

It could also be a virus or spyware. My bro has a virus or some spyware, or whatever bad thing it is on his computer, which prevents him from veiwing webpages conveniently. I used to have a virus that did'nt even let me go anywhere online at aaaaaalll. Then I scanned my computer with norton antivirus, and it caught and deleted the evil virus :3 Viruses and spyware can do all sorts of bad stuff, so there might be one preventing you from downloading things on your computer entirely. I'm not sure if it is, but it's a possibility. If you have a virus and spyware scanner, scan your computer now with both of the scanners and it might fix the problem :3 I can't think of anything else ^^;
