What specific download are you talking about? If you post a link someone could try - maybe it is corrupted?!  ;D

I dl'd that one yesterday, and it seems to work fine for me, so I am guessing it's not a corrupt file. Other than that, no ideas as to what's wrong on your end, sorry.

Maybe it could be the extracting program: e.g. Winzip, Winrar or maybe just the default Unzip program I dont know what its called. Maybe that helps?

I downloaded the file & extracted it with various applications including the default Compressed Folders utility, WinZip, WinRAR & ALZip. Nothing wrong with the file so the problem must be at your end. Perhaps the the download was interrupted. Try downloading it again. If that doesn't work I don't know what to suggest.
