To daaams, thanks very much for your reply. It would appear that the computer I was initially using to download the font was asking for a password due to the settings. I have downloaded and installed the font via the laptop. Also, thanks to everyone else who tried to help with my issue.
To vinz, maybe people are a little vague and inaccurate when asking for help because they are unsure of what they are doing. Isn't that the whole point of forums like this? To ask for help and assistance? Being obnoxious is not helpful and is quite offensive. Maybe you should remember that in future. We don't all sit at our computers all day thinking we're great and being horrible to people. It's a bit like me being critical and offensive about your spelling and grammar. That's the problem with public forums, there are always people who think they are smarter than everyone else. WHY??

It occurs when I try to save the font into the font file via windows as per the instructions on the FAQ. It comes up with a message stating 'font name' is password protected, please enter password. It has happened to all three fonts I have downloaded from here which are described as free.

I downloaded it from dafont though?!

I am trying to install the font and it is stating the file is password protected and asking for said password....Any ideas?
