When I try to down load a program I get a notice that the download has timed out and will not download. Is it something I can fix? I tried to down windows update and this happens. also I cannot download adobe flash player.

- You already have Flash Player according to your system information.
- See link aside (in the forum) More System Details it is showing :
Shockwave Flash 11.8 r800 - That is probably up-to-date see http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
- To check go to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ (Keep the Flash Player plugin enabled)
- See link aside (in the forum) More System Details it is showing :
Windows updates either are automated or normally use IE
IIRC at one time uninstalling IE was not a good idea.

As for downloads timing out check that you have the correct download and that that nothing is blocking the downloads.
- See What to do if you can't download or save files
The article also suggests other solutions.
It may be possible to increase the download timeout but it is better to look for the cause first.
