    You didn't mention the "why". Why you can't download? An error occurs? If yes what kind of error? Tell us with as many details as you can.

    PS: And tell us any relative info you can possibly think!

    Some ideas:

    1) Did you make and proxy changes? [What is a proxy? More info: http://www.tech-faq.com/what-is-a-proxy.html]

    2) Did you make any url changes (for example instead of pop.mail.yahoo.com, (CORRECT one) you wrote mail.pop.yahoo.com? (false one)

    3) Did you changed your email password?

    I can't think any other thing right now. Do some research and tell us...

    Saving isn't opening. After the file saves, go to the file you saved and run it.
