It seems my Kaspersky Internet Security blocks the IDM. Beforehand, I could download any kind of files using IDM, then one day Kaspersky popped up a message saying that the application has a danger level. I then clicked 'Block the application'. .... since then IDM cannot download and always gives error message.
I have been trying to unblock this application from Kaspersky setting but I cannot find the way to (to allow this application).
Is it a good idea if I uninstall Kaspersky and then reinstall it in order that IDM may be 'allowed' this time?

i was having the same problem about kaspersky not allowing any d/l's to go through but today i'm getting the same message and can't figure out why.
anyway how to fix kaspersky go to online security and then to anti-banner, select the white list and add the servers you need in the list by adding * infront and behind the server name example:
*rapidshare.com*
add these for all of them that you need.
the other thing is applications and putting internet download manager as a trusted application.
In Kaspersky, go to "Settings->Anti-Hacker->Settings->Rules for Applications" and delete the rule for IDM, then click "OK", then "Apply" and start IDM - when prompted; this time select "Allow".
I hope that works... If not, please tell me what version of Kaspersky you are using.
I tried to do what you asked me to, but there is no 'Anti Hacker' in my Kaspersky. I go to setting-> application control, but didn't find any rules for IDM.
I have also checked its firewall rules and Internet Download Manager 5.18 is categorised 'Trusted'. So then, I tried to download a file and a popup message came up saying "Cannot transfer file download to Internet Download Manager. Error 0x80070005" ... the standard downloader then automatically popped up helping me to download the file.
