Which program are you trying to download? The message you're replying to 
has two links in it.

BTW, it sounds like you might have some malware on your system. I'd 
suggest scanning it with something like Microsoft Security Essentials.

I have an old desktop system running Windows XP, and I want to decide 
over the next few days if I'm going to move it up to windows 7 or switch 
it to a linux distribution, like vinux based on Ubuntu. I'll be running 
the Windows 7 utility myself in a day or two, so ifI notice anything, 
I'll let you know.
