Problem solved....... Too much of a hastle doing it in ubuntu so I downloaded it with Windows XP

I was hoping to do all my internet work with ubuntu but apparently there are still some limitations. .


The limitation is your ntfs..... and a file is not ntfs. the filesystem is ntfs. Big difference. But if this simple problem scared you of, it's a wise choice leaving ubuntu. Because larger problems than that arise when using open source against closed source.

That's neither really nice nor true. The fact Alex prefers to use XP *atm* for *this task* doesn't make it any wiser to leave Ubuntu. In fact, he never stated he was going to do it. Keeping XP for a while just for the few tasks he still doesn't know how to do on Linux while *keeping* Ubuntu for all the tasks that are unwise to do on XP (especially for beginners) seems the wisest choice.
Cheers,
