External download managers won't work with IE9

Galonlon · 04 Jan 2012

Hi,
Recently my external download manager stopped working with IE9. This means the IE9 simply ignores it and uses its own download manager. I uses Orbit for a long time, and when it stopped working, I tried a few others, but none of them worked. This started not long ago.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

Thanks.

I've had to reinstall, although running a download manager with IE9 seems to be a bit more of a pain with applications that still expect IE9 to run like IE8 did (this was changed, apparently, so the code path to get to a download window is not exactly the same anymore - if your DL manager worked by hooking these calls, it may not work without an update now).
