9. "What if I have a problem downloading the e-book file?"
Most errors are being caused by some part of the configuration of proprietary browser versions. Certain Internet Service Providers (ISPs) send out browser versions on their installation software (usually a special version of Netscape or Internet Explorer), that is installed as part of the login and connection software you install by download or CD when you join the ISP. These special versions may be missing files contained in the full versions of browsers, or may have some modifications made by the ISP for their own purposes. All of our cases reporting the 'unresolvable error' have been dial up or cable modem accounts which pass through an ISP which uses one of these modified browser versions. 

We feel that upgrading the proprietary browser to the full version of the browser, available at no charge on the browser's main sites, then trying to download the document again with the full version of the browser should solve the problem they have encountered. The next step should be to complete the upgrade of choice (Netscape or Internet Explorer) and try the purchase again. We have listed the links to both browser upgrades below.
