Internet Explorer Has Blocked a Download

Sort:
Bugnado

When I log on to Chess.com, I am getting a toolbar message:

"To help protect your security, Internet Explorer blocked this site from downloading files to your computer.  Click here for options."

Does anyone know what the file is that is attempting to run?  It's even flashing up there now while I'm in the forums. 

Running Windows XP (5.1.2600 SP3 Build2600) with Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18702 on an x86 laptop.

I have no idea, but the other day it kept dinging me numerous times blocking some file that chess.com wanted to download.  I suspect it was part of an ad of some sort.
