Thx Marcus for your fast reply. I later downloaded via my Linux computer via
Uni Canterbury mirror with no problem (failed there also under win7) and got it
installed. I really think it is a MShit issue/sabotage.
Cheers from NZChris

normally the downloads should go through without problems. But maybe
there is a temporary hickup with the mirror server you are using.
As it seems that you are using an English Windows system the following
is a download link for a server from the ISP NetCologne (Köln) [1].
Otherwise you can choose another one when you click on the blue "miror"
link on the download page from SourceForge (the one that countdown from
5 seconds to 0).
