I have been getting several complaints from members that they cant download there PM's in neither format (xml,txt,etc) I have tried a few different browsers and I get the same results. there are some members that can download with no issues and some that cant including myself the admin?

Try disabling your modifications and see if you can download them. Or, make a new default vbulletin style (Style Manager > Create New Style > select No Parent) and go to the page using that style and see if you can download them using that style.

To troubleshoot this, please remove any hacks and disable your plugins, then see if you still have this problem.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit config.php and add this line right under <?php
define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);
If so, reupload all the original vB non-image files (except install.php). Make sure you upload these in ASCII format and overwrite the ones on the server.

I have disabled the plugin system and tried again but same results. Basically when I click on the dowload PM in any format the browser say "Loading" and never downloads anything

Do you have a site link and a test account with some test pms so we can check this out ourselves?
