When I try to download something it always says canceled

I'm pretty sure I have the newest firefox browser. Everytime I try to download something, such as virtual villagers or computer gadgets, it says to save as a binary file. When I click it it goes to the download window but always says canceled. Sometimes when I click on it it downloads but nothing happens. It appears that it downloaded but nothing actually happened.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== Not sure

Other Issues: ~~red:You have installed plug-ins with known security issues. You should update them immediately.~~

You ~~red:MAY~~ need to Update Adobe Reader for Firefox: your ver. N/A; current ver. 9.3.2 ~~red:Check your version here~~: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/ See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+the+Adobe+Reader+plugin+with+Firefox#Installing_and_updating_Adobe_Reader You may be able to update from the Adobe Reader installed on your system instead of going to the Adobe site and downloading. Start > Program Files, find and click Adobe Reader to open, click Help, click Check for Updates. If you go to the Adobe site to download the current Adobe Reader: -use Firefox to download and SAVE to your hard drive (save to Desktop for easy access) ~~red:-See the images at the bottom left of this post to see the steps to take on the Adobe site~~ -exit Firefox (File > Exit) -check to see that Firefox is completely closed (Ctrl+Alt+Del, choose Task Manager, click Processes tab, if "firefox.exe" is on the list, right-click "firefox.exe" and choose End process, close the Task Manager window) -double-click on the Adobe Reader installer you just downloaded to install/update Adobe Reader

For WinXP:

Start Run

Type in textbox: regsvr32.exe urlmon.dll

Once registered, the download problem gets solved.

This will also work for Vista and Win7.
