Help Browser not downloading files

Hi,

I have had my Galaxy Note 10.1 (GT-N8010) for about a year now and love it. A few months ago, (not sure if it was directly after the OTA firmware upgrade to 4.1.2) the inbuilt browser stopped downloading any files.

For example if I click on a .pdf file to download. a blue notification comes up 'Downloading' there is no error indication, but nothing is ever downloaded. The same applies to any other type of file.

I have looked for any setting the prevents files downloading but can't find any.

I have now installed 'Chrome' and that downloads files fine...anyone know why this might be, is it the upgrade? Can I do anything about it?

thanks
