RC1 file size/md5.. corrupt?

[Guest]

I have been downloading vista RC1 and I keep getting a file that is the wrong
size/md5 than what is said it should be. the file I get has been
2,709,782,528. The file size as reported in these groups is 2,771,730,443.
I have been using opera to download the file and when I am downloading the
file, the supposed file size reported at the bottom of the transfer window in
opera is 2,709,782,528..not the 2,771,730,443 as reported here. I have had a
bad file download with Firefox also. I downloaded Vista Beta 2 with Opera
and it was okay. Anyone know what may be the problem with RC1

Maybe Opera's File Transfer Manager is calculating a wrong file size some
how. I would try using IE 6 or 7 and the dedicated download Manager
available on the website.

I have done both of those and the download manager gave me a fatal error at
99% download and the download without the manager in I.E. 7 was also bad. I
about ready to give up on RC1 and just try the beta, since it works.

I downloaded using freedownloadmanager, the file size I got was
2.709,782,528, I burned it to DVD using ImgBurn, installed it as an upgrade
over 5536
and have had no problems so far.
Burn the file and try it, if you havn't done so already.
