Default Pro installation, error message

Hi, I purchased pro from the official website, and got the "personal download page". I downloaded the installer, and when I click the .exe to install, it comes up with an error message saying, "The installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomplete. This
could be the result of a damaged disk, a failed download or virus.
You may want to contact the installer to obtain a new copy.
It may be possible to skip this check using the /NCRC command line
switch (NOT RECOMMENDED)."

I've tried downloading on two different computers and came up with the same message. I'm running XP pro. I currently have limewire basic, and that works fine. THANKS

I don't have a corrupted installation, I can't even get it to begin installing. The error message says its the limewirewin.exe itself is corrupted, and I've redownloaded it many times.
Thanks

An easier solution, see Here about other version. Just unzip it & move it to where you want it & use it! Easy as that! No installation necessary!

The 'Other' version should also be pro if you downlded it from your personal downld page. It's the last one on the list & has a ? next to it & called: ? Other (OS/2, Solaris, Linux)

When I download the "other", I get a zip folder. I click the .exe inside that says limewire, and i get an error message saying, "limewire was unable to load. Please download and install limewire again." I found another .exe called limewirestub, i open that, and it install limewire basic.
