HOW DO I UNBLOCK DOWNLOADS?!!!!!!

How do I unblock downloads? I download files and it says that its "blocked: may contain a virus or spyware" I wanna download the files regardless, so how do i unblock?

Hi.
There seems to be a workaround published here: http://www.ghacks.net/2014/11/19/bypass-firefoxs-blocked-may-contain-a-virus-or-spyware-message/
It is a third party site, but WOT says it's OK :) Thought I figure it is for your own browsing safety. More on the issue can be read here:

Kind regards,

  • How do I unblock email attachments so I can access and download?

    I'm accessing my email from work via a secure website. Each time the email has an attachment that is type .xml or other extension the attachment is blocked. How do I unblock it so I can access and download the attachment?

    Hi Drew1005
    It sounds like you have a security issue there. The agilent instrument driver that you are using requires access to some files that are restricted to Administrators on that machine. What you need to do is to give everyone full access to the instruments' driver directory. For example, if you are using LabVIEW, this will be in /labview/instr.lib. You will have to right click on the directory if you are in the Windows environment, choose properties and in the security tab, give Every One full access to the directory.
    Let me know if you nee more help.
    Thanks for contacting National Instruments.

  • How can I unblock a file being downloaded?

    When I try to download files such as skype from the internet when I click save file as instructed, it blocks the download, if it does download it I can't click it in my documents to open and run the file. How do I unblock these downloads and allow them.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == I tried downloading skype.

    It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox.
    You can try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
    Do not forget to re-enable the scanning in your anti-virus software after you are finished with downloading and installing.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files (Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows)

  • How do I unblock a contact in the desktop version ...

    I'm trying to get Skype working on my desktop (Windows 8.1 Pro). I am NOT a Skype user, I've downloaded the Skype desktop version onto my laptop (also a Windows 8.1 Pro machine), and have my daughter trying it from her account. However, I've discovered that somehow, in some way and some point in time, I've blocked her. I've no idea how that happened, when that happened, nor why that happened; but it is that way. So then I tried searching for help on these and other forums. The instructions all say to go into Tools | Options | Privacy | Blocked Contacts. OK, I've done that, and I actually see my daughter's account there, clearly in the Blocked People list box. But then the instructions clearly say that you're to select someone in the list box and then click on the "Unblock this person" button.
    That is a lie. 100% false. Never going to happen. The universe will come to an end before this works.
    The reason for that is because when I select my daughter's profile in the list box (or anyone else that I have in that list box) the "Unblock this person" button never, ever becomes enabled! And how am I supposed to re-enable anyone if that button just sits there useless?
    I did, however find one other uncomplete possibility. From within Skype I selected my daugther's profile, and it informs me that she's blocked. And then it says, "If you want to chat, unblock them fr...", and that's it, folks, as Elmer Fudd would say. No more instructions, no more help, nothing. If clicked on the link and that took me to people.live.com; but what am I supposed to do once I get there? Instructions that say only "unblock them fr" is not at all helpful!
    So, I've got only 2 answers that I've been able to find, one by search which is either a lie or is now disabled (for some reason), and another which is an incomplete instruction set. And people wonder why more people don't use Skype? Well, if tasks were accurate and complete, maybe more people would!
    So I'm asking you all, how do you unblock a contact that is blocked? What are the correct instructions that actually work?

  • How do I unblock Blocked Plug-ins?

    I just downloaded and installed the latest version of Safari.  Now during some internet searches, the message "Blocked Plug-in" appears on my screen.  This never happened before I installed the new version of Safari.  How can I unblock all plug-ins?

    I updated Flash and still have blocked plug ins - what now?

  • How do you unblock a blocked plug-ins safari? when i go to the updated version to install it, it still tells me "blocked plug-in".

    how do you unblock a blocked plug-ins safari? when i go to the updated version to install it, it still tells me "blocked plug-in".

    I'll assume you mean Flash. If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 5.
    1. If you're only having trouble with YouTube videos, sign in to your YouTube account and load this page. You may see a link with the text "Leave the HTML5 Trial." If so, click that link.
    2. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
    3. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
    Flash Player (failing).plugin  
    You may be prompted for your login password.
    4. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
    Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
    Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
    5. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
    6. Select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
    7. In the Safari preference window, select
    Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    Close the window. Then select
     ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
    and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

    A webcast that I watch regularly doesn't openup.  The screen reads blocked plug in.  How do I unblock it?  Also what caused it to be blocked in the first place?

    Is this on a Mac or an iOS device?
    If it is a Mac, you probably need to update your Adobe Flash Player. Go to Adobe.com and download and install the latest version, then restart your web browser.
    Best of luck.

    how do i unblock adobe flash

    Do you have the Plugin version of Adobe Flash installed?
    There are two different versions of Flash, the '''''ActiveX''''' version for IE and the '''Plugin''' version used by most other browsers.
    1.Download the Flash Plugin version setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />
