Do you have the Lite version of Winamp 5? Are you trying to download modern skins (.wal files)? The Full version of Winamp 5 supports Modern (.wal) skins. Download Winamp

No luck or that is not it? Try clearing the Internet cache...
MS Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options... > General tab > click the 'Delete Files' button under "Temporary Internet Files"
-or-
Control Panel > Internet Options icon > General tab > click the 'Delete Files' button under "Temporary Internet Files"

Still no luck? Please post a reply with system specs.

Otherwise, try the alternative download method
1. Right-click on the download link
2. select 'Save target as'
3. download/save the skin to the WA5 skins folder (usually C:\Program Files\Winamp\Skins)
Example: C:\Program Files\Winamp\Skins\SkinName.wal (or SkinName.wsz if downloading a classic skin)
Next time you are using Winamp 5, select the skin there.
