I am unable to download any updates that are very lengthy, such as windows media player. I can't download anything that is very large. It will run about 1/2 way thru and hang up. I have a fairly new install of windows xp pro, and I use grisoft,ad ware, and abrexo. Any ideas what may be causing this. I also get program not responding when trying to close out some windows that are open.
Help!

To help with downloading large files you can try using a download manager that allows resuming downloads. Windows updates can be manually downloaded from the Microsoft website.
If a program is busy working on something, it may not respond properly and will trigger the not responding from Windows. Sometimes if you hit Cancel to End Program, it will start responding again.
