134641 2003-04-09 18:25:00 Lately, any downloads around 700kb plus are getting corrupted when I download them. For example, I downloaded the phpmyadmin package, about 1.4mb, and when I went to extract it, WinZip refused to extract some files because of bad CRC's. Another time, I downloaded an installer, and was told that Wise0132.dll could not be extracted because of a bad CRC. Once, a zip file had corrupted headers.

This, only happened a couple of days ago - and the only thing I can think of is that I installed new modem drivers.

There are other factors too, like being on a country line with a modem, and other things, but this has caused no problems before.

PLEEEEEEAAAAASEEEEEE HEEEELLLLP!!!

134642 2003-04-09 21:47:00 do you use a download manager...like GetRight?

if so maybe a reinstall of that (whatever one you have)

if not then see if you can download one or get one off of your PCW CD's..

Anyway, I reinstalled the old drivers, and, tadada, downloads work fine again.

Weird :)
