if you have any system protection stuff (usually bundled with virus/firewall software) they may
be automatically preventing it (ie maximum security noob settings).

try lowering ur pc security settings while u do it. firewall is the only program u really need
to have running anyway, virus and system monitors the likes are good if u don't know what ur
doing, or getting stuff from places u don't know. Just don't open emails with a link to
"freeporn.exe" or the likes lol
