Ever since I installed the latest version, I can't download anything. The file will say it's downloading but I never get the entire file so it won't be functional. What's up?

When I try to download a file - especially something zipped - it downloads but the file is totally incomplete and nonfunctional. If I go to IE to download the same file, it comes through fine so it is totally browser related. Also, frequently I click a link and it says it can't find the site (especially if I have more than one tab open), but again if I go to IE it works fine. If it can't be fixed I will have to go back to IE.
