When Personals get strange...

Something strange has happened to downloads in Firefox, suddenly I cannot save images when I right click on them, the dialog box appears to browse for the saving location, but when I hit save the download dialog box no longer appears to show the progress of the download and the file is not saved.

Also if I save any other type of file using Firefox again the download dialog box does not appear, but the file will download and save.

I have removed all plugins, I've uninstalled and reinstalled but it still does the same thing.

Hi

I think 'Videos' should be in the TV+Movies section of Media Center. Whilst it may seem logical to put home videos and pictures together, it just doesn't work for me. It seems strange for me to go to TV+Movies tab to watch recorded tv programmes but tv programmes or movies that I have download (or have previously ripped and therefore in avi/divx/xvid formats) are located in the Pictures+Videos section.

Is there any way to change this so I can have a Pictures tab and a TV, Movies and Video in a tab together?

I have a very strange Vista (Ultimate 64) problem.

OK here we go, I have problem connecting to the internet with certain applications. I have tried disabling the firewall and still get the same problem.
I can connect to the internet with IE (64bit) but not with normal 32bit IE, firefox, thunderbird and Skype don't connect, the sidebar weather app connects and so does Windows update.

In IE if I goto Tools -> Options -> Connections -> Setup it says 'You are already conected to the internet.' So I click 'Browse the internet now' it displays the 'Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage' so I click on 'Diagnose Connection Problems' it says 'Windows did not find any problems'.

This "new" security update keeps showing up even though I've installed it several times by now. After installation I'm even told that the update was "installed successfully". Every other update installs just fine. Any idea why this one keeps popping up?
