Vista - Security Alert Error Message

02-28-2009

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.

Try checking your security policies (gpedit.msc). Hope this helps.

Thanks for your response, I'm not sure how to do that.

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.
