I have had a problem ever since installing SP2 in which I
cannot easily install programs I have downloaded from the
internet. It is as if the file somehow got corrupted on
download, but I have the latest update or NAV and a scan
of my computer has not shown any viruses.

Sometimes I have to download a file three or four times
before I can install a program w/o encountering errors.
There is never a common error that I can list in this
posting.

The problem also exists w/ downloaded zip files. I
encounter problems unzipping downloaded zip files w/
things like CRC errors, etc. None of this started until
I installed SP2. Any ideas?

Post the exact error messages, Hutch.
