You want to stop all downloads? Or just the ones occuring in the browser, like the 'Stop' button in Internet Explorer
Hi,
I have managed to figure out a crude way of stopping the downloads if a user clicks on a link by using BeforeNavigate2 and looking at a list of extensions.
I would like to stop all downloads, but not sure if this is possible as an image is also a download. Wondered if using dhtml.dom (ithink thats right) if i could also create a porn blocker, but have never used this, so any help would be appreciated.
Found the fix above in an article on this site.

Canceling downloads is quite easy. The Web Browser control has a FileDownload event. Use the Cancel parameter to stop the download.
Yes, you can use the DHTML DOM to make a porn blocker. I suggest you read my latest article (Using the Web Browser control, see sig for link). It includes code for a very simple blocker. In the article that is to appear next month I'll include code for a more advanced porn blocker. :)VB Code:
