Scroll down to the 'Downloads' entries, and ensure that 'File Download' is set to 'Enabled'.Does that help?

Double post here. I've just reread your question. It's a bit convoluted. Sentence structure would help a bit ;)
Is it the message board itself which is giving trouble. If so, then finding out and telling us the name of the message board software in use would help.
