Everytime I try to download from there I keep getting some kind of image gif format thing but nothing comes up.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

Perhaps they're using the referer sent by your browser to prevent hotlinking. Do you have referer logging disabled?

It's usually 3rd party software - I think the Norton suite does it, various browser toolbars, etc, etc.

Well, i'm downloading directly from their site, or atleast trying to. And it still doesnt work.

I don't know, infact, haven't got a clue what the hell referer logging is

Edit: Kaspersky may be the culprit. I've enabled the in-features that is pop up blocker, banner blocker etc. I'll give it a twiddle.
