Hi there,

I seem to have a problem with my internet connection. When I try to download something e.g. An audiobook to "Overdrive Media Console" OR try to download Adobe digital Editions I get a dialog box telling me I am not connected to the internet!!! even though I am :mad2:

HELP!! I am from UK but live in France and my internet service provider is SFR (recently changed from Orange but I had same problem with them) Is it my computer - ie: I've done something to it :oops:

or do I have to contact SFR :roll:

Alternatively I could just buy a new pc :cry:

which would be the easy option!
Basically what I want to know is: Is it my internet provider which is responsible for the error messages coming up or is it my fault by deleting something I shouldn't have? :idiot2:

PLEASE HELP ME!!

If it were deleting something software wise there is no way I'd buy new, I'd simply reformat first on that note. As to a fix, someone should be along in the next few hours that would know more maybe.

And :welcome:

to the forum LoopySuze. :hello:

Possibly your ISP is blocking your attempts to get downloads. Since France does have a Blacklist.
Is the error an actual Browser error or is it a fake error page made up by the ISP?
