Boot your computer into safe-mode with network and try to download it. If that works you have some software that's blocking you. <br />
<br />
Or you can do an MSCONFIG in your start and disable everything on startup and reboot / try downloading the file. <br />
<br />
NOTE: if you do this it will disable your Antivirus software so you may get a virus. Make sure what your downloading is trusted.

I am having a problem downloading an (.exe) file from a particular site, I can download it from other networks, I can down load other (.exe) files and I can download other .exe files from the same site, example the site has a link for a Mac version of the program and a PC version of the program but the PC link doesn’t work. I tried to see if there was something blocking on the firewall but I’m not seeing anything also I'm not getting an error message from my browser, any thoughts?<br />
Thanks

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.

Software firewalls, also known as host-based firewalls, provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine. Most operating systems now include firewall software, but many available software firewalls include central distribution, antivirus systems and disaster recovery.
