Flash 8 Trial version is corrupted.

[Darkware]

Have any of you experienced this as well? The trial version is the full version, only limited until you purchase the serial number. It downloads fine, but when I try to install it, it says it's corrupted. I have downloaded it twice now just to make sure something weird didn't happen and it failed both times. I'm running Windows 2000 on this computer and Windows 2000 SP4 on the other so I know it's not an OS problem. Macromedia states that it will work on 2000.

Any ideas? I'd really like to try this. This is a major problem with Macromedia. Does it install ok for all of you?

I've heard the same happening to others. Keep trying, I think you just got the file at "a bad time". I havent had any problems with my installations

Files can very easily become corrupted, happens frequently
especially if your connection is disturbed while downloading.

Think back to binary, all it takes is 1 "0" to go missing and you have
nothing.

Crap, when I need to get a BIG file, I just go down to the local
internet cafe with my memory stick.

Costs about $3, they have broadband 2 12 MBPS

No problem for me.

Sometimes the file is compressed with a file compressor software that is different from OS to OS. For example, if I compress something using winRar on this computer it might not work whem I try at home because my winRAR version at home is newer than this at work.

12mpbs... think about it.

Apparently in 3-6 years Optus will be using Fibre Optic cable to give
us speeds of 900mbps+, that will be fun!
