I have been trying to download VC++ express 2010 from the Microsoft site and 
I've run into a problem that I can't seem to work around.
The website is slow, except when I get to the part of interest, where I 
select a language to download. I get the little popup from IE saying it has 
blocked something, and I hit the jaws command alt+n to see what was popping 
up.  It was a download button. So I pressed it. Nothing happened -- it 
vanished and I was taken to a page with instructions on how to register my 
copy.

Now my problem is this: no matter what I do I can't get to that download --  
nothing is ever downloaded and I end up going in circles on their site.  Is 
this normal?  I know people on this list are using VS express and can maybe 
clear up this annoyance.  The page I start at is
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualc/default.aspx

I click on download or VC++ or whatever -- I've tried them all.
You can tell I'm getting crazy with this site.

TIA for any assistance!
