sounds like the zip files you're downloading are not completing. Try grabbing a couple files from this thread and report back.

What web browser are you using ? Are you using any download managers ? What unzipping program are you using to unzip the file ?

Thanks for the reply. Nope it said the same thing for the videos on that thread as all the others. I'm not good with computers so I don't know the answers to those questions so, how do I find out? Also, is it correctible?

Again,thanks a lot.

Then you're probably using IE to download and possibly a download manager program is interfering. What does it look like as the file is being downloaded ? Any text like GetRight or does it look like a normal Windows download bar ?

You can always download and install Firefox and try again. Firefox is an alternative to Internet Explorer and this may help your download of these zip files complete.

You do know how to unzip a file after it is downloaded right ?
