Downloading to Delorme PN-40

Recently purchased a Delorme PN40 and am trying to download cache coordinants from the Geocache website. When I attempt to download a geocache I see a screen that shows a list of items that need to be checked before I can download the cache information. The first item is the necessary driver and the international symbol for stop with a button that states Download. When I click the download button I am taken to the Delorme website. I selected the PC option and follow the instructions to download the driver. When done, I restart my laptop and attempt to download a cache. The original window appears. I tried it 3 times without success.

 

Any suggestions?

OK dumb question but did you install the plug in? I just bought the same GPSr and have not had any problems downloading caches to it. All I did was download and install the plug in.

Yes, I did install the plug in, and restarted my computer 3 times. This evening I attempted to download cache coordinates from the Geocaching.com website and was sucessful for a few but then encountered the same issue with others. Is there any reason why that would happen?
