Your IE settings may be set to High or set to block downloads.

Launch IE, then go to Tools / Internet Options.

Go to the Security tab, click on Custom Level.

Scroll through the list and find the item Downloads.

Select Enable for File Downloads, click on OK.

Exit all screens and close IE.

Relaunch IE and see if you can download a file.

When you say anything, do you mean using Internet Explorer?

Try setting the proxy settings to 'automatic'.

Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN setings > Automatically detect settings

What sort of internet connection do you have?
