Corrupt Downloads
 
You are getting corrupted files. I have had this problem often. Its mostly due to the inadequate "savenow" download manager that alows you to resume/download programs ... They should add support to use your own download manager with one of the Gnutella Clones ... there are some really good programs out there like GoZilla! and Getright that would work really well for downloading ..."savenow" is crap ..unless "savenow" is re-coded to actualy work right we will all be experience the "I spent 1 to 10 hrs downloading on a 56k modem and got a worthless file" syndrome .... I f all else fails you can try using a program like WinRar which can sometimes repair the file to a certain extent and alow you to extract the stuff that is still goodso it will not be a total loss .....

Sorry about the bad info
 
Ok SAVENOW is a spyware program that monitors where you go and what you do on the net for AD Companies .....but the fact remains that the Gnutella Clones handle downloading for crap and I still thing it is a good idea for the program to allow 3rd party programs like GoZilla! or Getright to handle downloads ....this most likely help out alot in the area of everyone getting not get corrupt files after a large download ... matter afact Ive had downloads that were corrupt after the first 5 to 10 MB .... it's a real pain in the butt trying to get a file that is actualy usefull .....it's that or fix the current download manager
