Joshua_ > the bottom link on http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/#webInstall

Joshua_ > or any link for that matte

Blessyl > I see. Thank you for that information, Joshua. It seems that this has something to do with microsoft. Let me check further here.

Joshua_ > no because I can get it on a different service

Blessyl > I checked your account information as well as the connection status, Joshua. Everything is working fine with your connection.

Joshua_ > ok so fix my problem

Blessyl > What type of windows do you have, Joshua?

Joshua_ > vista

Blessyl > Thank you.

Blessyl > Apparently, I could not assist you further, Joshua, on your issue concerning microsoft download. It is already manufacturer related issue. It is already on microsoft's website.

Blessyl > However I have here the contact number for microsoft's technical support. (866) 234-6020

Blessyl > You may go to this link for further information:

Joshua_ > but it is a comcast issue because if I use a Quest DSL connection it works

Blessyl > Did you try to refresh your PC? Like turning it OFF for a couple of minutes, unplugging the ethernet from the modem, unplugging the coax cable from the coax outlet.

Joshua_ > I have had this issue since I got comcast

Blessyl > Did you remove 3rd party splitters (if you have) and did you refresh the modem by turning it OFF?

Joshua_ > yes

Blessyl > Thank you.

Blessyl > Are you surfing the net using explorer?

Blessyl > I am referring when you do the download.

Joshua_ > firefox and explorer

Blessyl > Thank you, Josh. Can you please temporarily disable any firewalls, spyware, or pop up blockers?

Joshua_ > why

Blessyl > I am currently going through with the troubleshooting process, Joshua, to see if it is Comcast related issue.

Blessyl > After that, pease try to do the download. Let me know what is the result. Thank you.

Joshua_ > it is

Joshua_ > I told you that

Joshua_ > nope

Blessyl > What do you mean? You mean you have already temporarily disable any firewalls, spyware, or pop up blockers? And it still did not work?

Joshua_ > What do I mean? I mean the download isn't working because I have comcast and it is your issue and if you don't fix it I will chamge providers

Blessyl > What I am trying to clarify here, Joshua, is the error that you are encountering. I am working now to resolve this. I you believe that it is in Comcast, let me work on it.

Blessyl > I was trying to verify if you have already temporarily disable any firewalls, spyware, or pop up blockers.

Joshua_ > I did and it still isn't working

Blessyl > Alright. Thank you.

Blessyl > Are you there?

Joshua_ > yes

Blessyl > Did you try to clear the cache, cookies, and history, and check auto-complete, security, privacy, and Internet Explorer defaults?

Joshua_ > hurry up or I will switch services

Joshua_ > yes

Blessyl > I was trying to verify, Joshua, if you try to clear the cache, cookies, and history, and check auto-complete, security, privacy, and Internet Explorer defaults?
