    Problem opening downloaded files


    Cannot open or save any downloaded file or email attachment. Files seem to download OK but when I click open or save I get an error message that says a virus has been detected and file is deleted.

    :)

    2. Double-click one of the following folders:
      • Downloads
      • Documents
      • Pictures
      • Videos
      • Music

    To search for a file you have downloaded...

    1. Click the Start button
    2. Type all or part of the file name into the Search box.
      The file you are looking for will appear in the list of results.
