I may be the only one, but I seem to be unable to download any file correctly from this site. They always end up as '0 Kb,' and the Excel files display a message 'Unable to open' (This is because they download as 0 KB). I am wondering if anyone else is facing the same problem?

I am using Mozilla Firefox and I have Admin Privileges with no blockages. I am able to download from other websites but not from this one. I have also tried using Internet Explorer, but the results are the same. I am thinking that my IP might have been blocked or that CiteHr is using some form of S.O.R.B.S. IP Ban protection.

During peak hours, our servers are overloaded with download requests, which possibly caused the problem. We have now limited the number of simultaneous downloads by members - this should help in fixing this issue. Let me know if you continue to have problems.

Just try using the system which has a direct broadband connection to the computer, or try downloading from another location apart from your office, like at home or a cyber cafe. I have never faced this kind of problem. Hope you can start downloading very soon.

Actually, I have also been facing the same problem. Docs/PPTs I download don't open on my system. Initially, I thought it was a problem with some old files, and then thought maybe it was my laptop getting sick. But after reading this thread, I realized that the problem I was facing was also specific to CHR downloads. Hope someone can help us resolve it.

I just solved my problem. It was on my end, actually. My whacky Firewall cum AntiVirus cum Internet Security Suite was causing it. When I had it disabled for a few seconds to download, it worked just great. Amazingly, it was not the firewall that was blocking it but the antivirus! That too, only for CiteHR!

Some of the attachments are corrupt - we just have to live with that - since this is user-generated content, it's difficult to guarantee that each user will upload the attachment properly. In case you find a corrupt file, just use the download search to find similar files.

Hi,
I am facing the same problem as the download documents are not opening (certain files). I have tried on many PCs and have also used Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, and Mozilla. Could you suggest a solution?
I have also asked the concerned person to forward the documents to my Gmail ID, but no one has responded. Kindly assist me with this issue.
Thank you.

I do face the same problem many times while downloading PowerPoint (PPT) files from CiteHR. Though it can be seen that I have actually downloaded the complete file, it shows an error while opening the PPTs.

For those who have a firewall and antivirus, disabling it for a few seconds until you download may be a solution. For those who are trying to download off their office PCs, disabling antivirus and firewall will not be an option (unless you are the Admin!), in these cases, I suggest that you try using a proxy in Internet Explorer or Firefox. Search Google for Free Proxy and add that IP in your browser network options. Most Corporate Admins do block downloading to prevent virus issues.
