Hi guys,

downloaded ( least I tried, "thought" it worked ) Stinger from the McAfee
Site & saved to desktop.
When I try to run it - no can do- says Stinger.exe is not a valid Win 32
application.
Running Xp Sp 2 here.

Thanks if you can help.

Thanks for your response Rey. It says the download completed .I just
re-tried again-same results. Not sure what to do to get it to work but will
keep trying .
 
This is generally a sign that the file corrupted during the download.
Continue downloading until you get one that works. Or, try downloading with
another computer and then transfer it to your computer.

Try running it in Safe Mode; I suspect a smart virus is blocking its
usage, or preventing any .exe from running.. Also try this:

Fix File Associations. Run the .exe fix.
