I don?t recommend that you disable your security just because a site requires it. Privacy control places a protective barrier between the Internet and the confidential and personal information stored on your PC. I figure if a site requires that I give them access to my confidential and personal information, I don?t need to visit their site. I refuse to unlock my door when I know it may be a theif knocking on it. _ But this is my recommendation and opinion.

I contacted the owner of the website and one of the fixes was to turn off the privacy setting in Norton's firewall. I did and the download went perfectly. After I finished downloading I turned the privacy setting back on.
