I've been trying to download Vista for 3 day's now and no luck. I tried
both using the download manager, which keeps giving me a "network error,
cannot download" error and with the browser that just times out. Is there
an alternate download site?

Ok, it was my firewall (eTrust EZ Armor) that was causing the problem. I
shut it down, and the download manager worked.

Now it download's the file (the 32-bit version) but I recieve a "fatal
error" when the download is done and it does the integrity check. So I
tried the browser link which worked, but the MD5 hash is way off. I'm using
a WinXP based system with plenty of disk space. Any ideas? Anyone?

TIA
