Internet Security Settings set




Windows 7 64 bit
ESet Security



I cannot open or run almost any downloaded software.

I have worked on this issues for weeks, now I have to ask.

Not able to open programs from intel and others, this issue started out as a slight problem if I run under compatibility,now compatible is doesn't work.

I am trying to run CPU-Z its in my internet safe zone, it is in my Fire Wall exception, I am running Eset Security I have disabled all the security programs a downloads. I have even seen this when I click on a link from my side bar. But today I can click on the links and they open. I am trying to get it as a torrent file to see if I can run it thought that download, don't know yet.

When I used windows to check why I can't load the program it always replies that it not compatible. Even files I have downloaded a few months ago which ran, give me the same error notice. I can down load CPU-z as a torrent and it will run fine.

 

can't run install file ' these files can't be opened'
