Hi,
Try the Reset button in Internet Options> Advanced. Note that this will
delete stored (autocomplete) passwords. Do you have those recorded
elsewhere?

What else the Reset button will do...
923737- How to use Reset Internet Explorer Settings (RIES):
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737/en-us

If resetting IE settings helps with this download problem, you may still
have to re-enable browser add-ons individually to see if a troublesome one
is found.
See: http://www.enhanceie.com/ie/troubleshoot.asp
The troublesome program may not show up as an add-on. Take a look at
download managers, security programs, firewalls, security suites, etc.
A firewall might be causing this problem. Be sure to turn on the Windows
Firewall from Control Panel> Windows Firewall before disabling a third-party
firewall or security suite during testing.

Hope this helps,
Don
