I did this, but the site still won't let me download. I get this message about 
internet security not letting this site download to my computer. Grrrrr.

  Okay, do the following:

  Go to tools by hitting alt-v.  Then right arrow to mail and news.  Just above 
this is internet options.  Tab through internet options until you hear or see 
general cancel, Then right arrow, and the first is security, and second is 
privacy.  When the right arrow is on privacy tab.  The first thing will be how 
high you want the safety, that is numbers.  Then you will see sites.  That is 
what you want.  You can select a site by typing the address, then tab and you 
will see block and always allow.  One of the geeks will probably tell you a 
simpler way to get to this, but that is how I do it.

  Hope this helps,

  What am I looking for though? I see security, but it doesn't show me any way 
of allowing content to be downloaded.

    Hi Shanon,

    According to the mail I have received, no one has answered your question 
yet.  It sounds like IE has set trusted sites, or else has blocked  the cooky 
for bookshare.  You can reset these things by going to privacy policy and/or 
security.

    Hope this helps,

    Sue S.

    Hi, all.

    Every time I try to download a book, I get a message saying that internet 
explorer has blocked the bookshare site from downloading matterial onto the 
computer. I did not ask it to do this, and I can't figure out how to fix it.

    I'm using IE 7, and windows XP Pro.

    I appreciate any help any of you can give.
