Mac, what sorts of anti-virus programs are you running on your machines? It sounds like your systems' settings are extremely tight! Oh - and what browser and settings are in place?
I had no problems, but have full Admin rights, and was using Firefox, with fairly relaxed security settings. I rely on being careful, and running Windows Security Essentials with frequent background scans...

I've been unable to download Orologi Solari onto either of my PCs, one using Windows XP, the other Windows 7. Either the download is blocked, or the download is successful but immediately discarded. However, the program is available on the NASS Repository Disc and I'll use that source. My thanks to all who offered advice.
