pop ups when downloading music
 

for some reason, when i try and download certain (mainly music) files, instead of the file downloading as usual and joining my downloads list, a pop up to some music website comes up and i dont know why. this seems to happen more when i try and download less well know artists. anyone know firstly why this happens and secondly how to stop it as it is really annoying! lol

thanks:confused:

Using the latest version of LW has fixed this for most people. You can get it here

For more info, use the search to look for artistdirect or redirected:)

is that the 4.12 one becasue i already have that one. and i have the pro edition too, so dont really wana pay for another one. what did you mean by the search thing? im really computer illiterate, sorry for being a bumb ***

4.12.3 has stopped most people from being redirected to websites.
The forum search is at the top of the page, between New Posts & Quick Links. You can use it to look through forum threads for info:)

ok cheers. i think i already have 4.12 but its still redirecting me which is crap. o well guess im just unlucky!

Try searching past the spamresults then
