Download links not working
Have been running the current version of FF on Windows 8.1 with no problems for a long while.
Suddenly find that no download links work; Torrents, OneDrive, GoogleDrive - even the download link on FF's page.
Have found that I can right-click a torrent on public sites and copy the link into uTorrent and get a result that works. But won't work on private torrent sites - Invalid Torrent File!
Also lost the 'Display download progress' down-arrow from the task bar, managed to restore it after selecting Customize Toolbar, where it doesn't appear as an option but magically reappeared on the Taskbar.
Please help.

Just as an addition, normal URL links on websites and in emails work fine
Even more info if it helps. When I click a download button on a torrent site, the Menu Bat at the very top of the screen flashes - but that's the onloy thing that happens
Could be a problem with your AVG security software.
It is possible that (anti-virus) security software is causing the problem. Try to disable security software temporarily to see if that makes a difference.
Thank you for the suggestion. I turned off AVG as suggested but neither torrent download links nor storage download links worked for me.
I've re-stsrted my AVG
Additional info. Opened Opera and torrent download links work in that program - not in the same way, they save the torrent file and I then have to open that file in uTorrent
AND, if I selecxt bold above it will only apply to the first paragraph
Take a look at these issues under the environment Windows Safe Mode w/Networking.
