downloading unsupported content

[shanicenicolle]

I was able to download unsupported content (example: .exe files) to my blackberries. So far when trying to do so far on my moto Droid, it says download failed. Is this possible @ all??

Thanks in advance for any help!

Have this issue as well even with some supported files like 3gp videos. This can be played but not downloaded directly from web.,hope this gets fixed soon.

Astro file-manager has an option to allow for any file type to be downloaded via your browser. I stumbled across that solution here (comment #8 in this thread) after encountering the same frustration myself:

Download Crutch works exactly as described. I'd recommend it.

I have been able to save .exe files and such using the Dolphin Browser. I just today, downloaded winamp.exe and pdanet.exe files and saved them to the SD card.
