I'm trying to setup a second email account in Thunderbird. The account already exists and I haven't had any problem with this on two other computers. But now when your popup window comes up so I can give Google access to my account, instead of submitting my answer I am getting prompted to download an empty txt file. The operation can't be completed, so my email account doesn't get setup in Thunderbird. Please help.

what empty text file? That sounds more than odd really.
