Does download.com have a corrupt HB 2.22 trial?

Post by kitty »

I've tried to download 10 times (broadband) and it takes some time and then when run says the file is corrupt, download again.

Try closing all download managers and if that doesn't work, the firewall, and if that doesn't work the anti-virus.



Don't forget to start them up again when download is complete!!

I got it by using my HTPC via VNC instead of my main PC. I think download.com had some problems.

I've heard about firewalls and anti-virus programs and download managers screwing up downloads or not working nicely with some sites, but saying download.com has problems is a bit thin unless we see more reports. Especially since you got it from another computer.

I know firewalls, etc. It was download.com, others have had problems at various times.
