Computer won't download powerpoints! Need help!

I need to download powerpoints from my teachers onto my computer. My computer wont let me. I've tried everything to make it work and I don't know what to do! Help?

Please tell us what "my computer wont let me" means. Exactly how are you trying? What happens when you try? If you get an error message, please quote it verbatim.

And is the problem that you can't download pps files, or that you can't open them after they've been downloaded?

I didn't have an error message it just wouldn't open. I haven't tried disabling my anti-virus yet. Thank you!

What is the error message you receive  when you try to download? Have you try saving to another location on your hard disk?

Have you tried disabling your Antivirus utility temporarily and try saving the files again?

Also, try saving using another user account.

If Microsoft PowerPoint is not installed on your PC, then download and install the free Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer.
