Frequently Asked Questions - Internet Download Accelerator

1. IDA won't download files. What should I do?
   If IDA won't download any files there may be one of the following causes: - no connection. Check if there is access to the Internet from other programs, for example from your browser; - access to the Internet is blocked by firewall or, sometimes, anti-virus. In this case you have to adjust your firewall settings so that IDA has permission to access the Internet, or check if your anti-virus settings allow programs on your computer to access the network (for example, network access is sometimes blocked when the safest settings are enabled in anti-virus software); - proxy-server is not specified. Check proxy-server settings in IDA -> Options -> Proxy settings. You can try to disable "Use proxy-server settings from MS Internet Explorer" option if it is enabled; - proxy-server specified incorrectly. Check proxy-server settings in IDA -> Options -> Proxy settings.
   
   
2. IDA won't download a particular file. What should I do?
   If IDA won't download some particular file only there may one of the following causes: - no connection to the specified server. Try to download later; - invalid proxy-server or proxy-server is temporarily unavailable. Check proxy-server settings for this download (Download properties) or for server (Site manager); - probably specified incorrect download address(URL). Check download link.
