How exactly are you attempting the download? Are you trying to save the
file to disk or trying to download and run it at the same time? Are you
using IE or another browser? Do you have User Account Control enabled or
disabled? If you're using IE is it in Protected Mode (look at the status
bar at the bottom of the window). What is the URL to the file in question?
