Hi, I recently posted about having BSOD problems, I fixed it by doing a clean install of Windows XP Pro. I am having a new problem however as I try to get some of my old programs back. I tried downloading simple applications such as firefox and IE 7 beta and every time i get a pop up that the download hasn't been certified. I mean I am downloading a Microsoft application and its telling me its not certified, when I try to run the application no matter where I download it from it says the file is corrupt. I have tried this with 3-4 simple downloads all with the same result.

I looked for it and unfortunately it isn't even listed there. This is actually a serious problem for me as I can't even get windows updates or new anti-virus updates either. Thank you for the help though.

I figured out what was wrong, it was the NVIDIA firewall which had been activated and I didn't know it, thanks for all the help though I appreciate it!
