I'm trying to view some photos from my digital camera. So I went onto the
Sony website and went through the processes to get to where it says "agree to
the terms and dowwnload". When I click on it, it does nothing except the
little icon in the corner of my screen shows that something is going on.
I've let it go on for a long time with no results. Any advice??

Not to be smart but this really could be most anything. What is the file
size? What speed are you connected at?

The file size is 1.52MB, and I have DSL connection. Most attachments on
e-mail that are about this size only take a few moments to download.

Ok I have no idea what "little icon in the corner of my screen shows that
something is going on" might be.

I'm thinking browser and/or website issues.

What browser (and browser version) are you using?

Also, sometimes websites are flaky for various reasons, trying back
later can help (sometimes).

A third possibility is to try an alternate site.

www.driverguide.com is my favorite
They make you sign up (free). But since they always give everyone the
same login, I don't feel bad about giving it away. Username:driver2,
password:all

As it happens, I saw a several sony digital camera downloads there. One
had a filesize of 1.5m
