What browser are you using? If you are using IE try firefox, if you are using firefox try IE.
That download requires using a Java or ActiveX based download manager, so your problem may be with that.
What web browser are you using? Just try another one
EDIT: Damn, beaten.
IE version 6.0.2900...., Windows XP service 2Quote:

i was able to move forward with Crazy Browser 1.0.5, and the file to be downloaded is VS2008ProEdition90dayTrialENUX1435622.iso but the status is showing error status ( by the download manager applet)Quote:

If I had to guess, CrazyBrowser is likely just a shell using IEs engine. Why not try a real full blown browser like firefox. The fact that firefox does not support activeX, will likely force the site to use the java based download manager, and you may have better results with that.
Download firefox and give it a try or update to IE7.
This is correct. CrazyBrowser just takes the currently installed IE and wraps some extra features around it.Quote:

Perhaps you should try removing the activeX control from IE and redownload.
Well,firefox is not prompting me for anything, it just showed me the saveAs dialog & next, immediately opens the downloaded ISO file (0Kb)Quote:
