every time I try and download Messenger Plus live(from the download link on this site!) on My friends computer it starts to download then It stops..and we get the message in form of an error box

"Msg Plus Live-401(4)exe.part could not be saved,because the source file cannot be read
Please try again later or contact the server administrator"

we have tried to load this over three days now.cleaned cache temp files..all traces of wlm..and Mpl...redownloadedd WLM .(from wlm download site).im lost i have no idea why it wont work..it happens when it gets to about 1/4 way through download..when the message comes up and the download stops.
no firewalls up
security closed down ..etc etc..

any ideas?
8.o.0812.oo  WLM
4.01.240        MPL

win xp ..&sp2

DO you have any "download accelerators" or other programs which "secure" the internet and add some tools? If so, disable them, clean your cache, and try again.

No cookie no download accelerators..

or secure the internet kinna things
(running on a security free connection at the moment I think i've thought of everything )

Ive disabled the firewall..and also disabled NIS(each download try)

and kept it disabled while attempting to download ..even done a reboot with them disabled from startup
done the cache clean
with CC cleaner
and even thought maybe a registry problem..and did a reg fix( i know im clutching at straws here)

is so lost

yeah i get the same thing, i believe there is something wrong with the link, i fix would be a big help as i need to update but cant

There is nothing wrong with the link though. Such problems are local.

Try to clean your cache again (in the proper way; using the browser's own options) and restart your browser afterwards.

There have been a whole lot of people recently on IRC that have had this or similar problem.
I think there actually might be something wrong other than the end client...

why dont you get someone to send it to you via msn or an email

have you simply tried downloading it from a mirror?

I would be happy to email it you or send it to you over msn...
