Hi, Gerald. Windows XP Home does have the Windows firewall, but I don't
know
anything about how it works since I use another program. Take care.

Laura,
What does the message in the Information Bar say when you attempt to
download a book?
Also, are you running XP Home, XP Pro, or XP Media Center? I don't
believe
Home has the firewall feature, Pro does, and I'm not sure about Media
Center.
Finally, you didn't mention security software like Norton or McAfee, so
should we assume that you don't have any additional security software on
your PC?
Gerald

Thanks Gerald and Julie,
Gerald I ddn't know you could release the books back in to the pending
pool
on the uploads page. I was afraid to try any other fixes because if they
failed I was afraid the book would be out of the pool for a whole week.
Now
I can do a little trial and error without fear of holding books for too
long.
Julie yes I'm using the information bar in windows xp, and I can't figure
out how to disable it. I did try clicking on it and then selecting
download
file, but bookshare sees that as an attempt to take the file so when the
information bar refreshes the page (or whatever it does) so that I can
click
on the link to download again, it gives me an error.
Thanks,
Laura

Hi, Laura. The other thing I can think of besides what Gerald suggested
is
the information bar in Windows XP. You didn't say if that was what you
were
using or not or if you did, I missed it. are you using JAWS or some other
screen reader? An Alt-N will bring up the information bar if that's the
problem and you can hit the spacebar then, which opens a menu where you
can
choose to download the file. Take care.

Hi,
I just signed up with bookshare to be a volunteer last week though I've
been
a bookshare subscriber for almost 2 years.
I'm having a problem and I've already tried several things to fix it.
Whenever I click on the link to download the .zip file, my internet
explorer
blocks the file download. When I click on the message and then select
"download file" it refreshes the page. But by the time it refreshes the
page, bookshare's site thinks I've already downloaded the book and thus I
get an error.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this? I'm fairly computer literate and
I've
tried several things including:
changing the custom security settings in the internet options; security;
internet zone
i've tried the same with the trusted sites zone (which I've added
bookshare
too)
Thanks,
Laura
