rar.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read

[hahihahi]

Dear All,

I am currently facing this problem with both Firefox and IE -->

"rar.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"

it doesn't matter which type of files (.avi or .mkv and so on) I tried to download, but this problem keep on showing up.

It happens only to my this recently bought computer and I tried it with my old computer, downloading using the same link but everything is ok......

Could anyone please help?? I am sure it is not my ISP problems but my computer problem, and I am living in a student hostel and connect my LAN cable to the hostel's network adapter.


Thank you......

What anti-virus? Does the problem persist wit the anti-virus still active?

you may get this message if whilst downloading you close the tab it originated from.
try it again but dont close the tabs.
