Preventing Internet Explorer Downloads
The Internet is full of ways to accidentally download spyware and viruses, both of which can cause serious PC errors. If you're really concerned about this, you can set Internet explorer security settings to restrict downloads. Single-click the Tools option with the left mouse button, and then select Internet Options. In the Internet Options window, single-click the Security tab. Click the Custom Level button, and then search through the options until you find File Download. Single-click the Disable option so it has a green dot in its circle, and then single-click the OK button. Now Internet Explorer will restrict all downloads until you change the security settings.
