nero 6.3; can't extract?

[fsh42na]

I've downloaded the trial version of Nero 6.3, but when I click to open it and extract the files I get the following message:

CRC failed in WMPBurn\WMP Burn.exe
unexpected end of archive


Is this just a bad download file?
I downloaded 2 different times and I get the same or similar CRC fail message.

Yep, you have a bad file. Try using another download link.

these downloads were directly from ahead. I've tried US and japan sites. I'll give germany a try I guess. Is it possible that because this is a new product and a very popular download, that somehow it's getting corrupted in the process??

It's hard to say what the problem is. It could be that the original file on their server is corrupted, or that it somehow became corrupted on its way to you. Http transfers can be very unstable at times. Try and use one of the FTP's if you haven't already. It's always a good idea to use a download manager if you have one too.

thanks for your help. Finally got a good download from germany. I opened and I now have functional demo to play with. It seems alot different from 5.5 that I had before. I'll have to decide if it's worth the $ or if there's another cheaper alternative.
