Hey I got my new Dell Computer August 3rd and I don't have that many errors.
There is one that I have to fix though. Whenever I try to download something
it only does so much unless it's a small download but anything over 5MB won't
work. It is very annoying. Can anyone help?

You Purchased The Wrong Operating System (Windows Vista), Just FYI.

You Should Have Purchased One Of Dell's Linux Ubuntu 7.04 Open Source
PC's, A Dell XPS 410 N Linux Ubuntu Open Source PC Is Only $870 Plus Tax
And Shipping In The U.S.A, Just FYI.

Dell Charges $999 For Their Windows Vista XPS 410 And $899 For Their
Windows XP XPS 410 Here In The USA, Just FYI.

Hi ringsofterror. Before a downloaded file is transferred to your chosen
folder location, its parts, so to speak, are downloaded to the Temporary
Internet Files folder.

Try this. Go to IE7 > Tools > Internet Options, and, on the
General tab, click on Settings, under the "Browsing history" section. In
the new window, next to "Disk space to use", try putting it at an
amount at least half of the highest number of what it says as
"(Recommended)"; for example, if it says 50- 250MB, try at least 125MB (the
default is 50, which is usually enough for browsing). Click OK. Back on
the General tab, under "Browsing history" again, click on Delete, then click
on Temporary Internet Files. Try a download again.

What a stupid reply from a right wing nut job. He has an issue with Vista
and you tell him to get a TOY like Ubuntu. You are 100% retarted. Just
FYI.

I Was Simply Telling Him That He Could Have Saved A Lot Of Money On His
Dell Computer By Not Having To Pay The Microsoft Windows Vista OEM
License Fee With His New Computer, Just FYI.

Had same problem. It was AVG 8.0. I had run out of trial time on it, so the program itself was not starting, but there was a freaking toolbar messing things up... Uninstalled AVG, and all is good. Hope that helps. Bottom line, try unistalling any anti virus, anti spyware, or anything of sorts.

And by the way, Kevin, your answer is like if you went to the doctor because of a pain in the little finger, and he suggested to cut it to get rid of the pain...

"... He Could Have Saved A Lot Of Money ..." is the most useless information you could had provided anyone, I would tend to agree with Karyn.
