Are you using a download manager for downloading?
If yes, which one?
Also, try downloading without using a download manager.

Are you having the problem only with RAR files ?
Are the downloaded small RAR files working fine ?
Are you having this problem with megaupload only ?

Try getting the latest version of WinRAR or 7Zip

 

[LiPoUrR]

yeah i can open exe files without problems....

i have problems with every bigger file, not only from megaupload!

i extract with winrar it shows 3-4 errors, when i do it with 7zip there is like 1000+ error :S

i tried with ALzip and no errors with him :S i will try with really big file, if there is no error, then my problem is solved

What are the errors ?

 

[LiPoUrR]

it just name the file and say crc error file corrupted i runed memory check and it passed! and i am running hdd check, it passed short test, i am waiting too see if he will pass long test....

WinRAR has a 30-day free trial and a very good repair function. I would try downloading it (WinRAR archiver, a powerful tool to process RAR and ZIP files), repairing the file, and then extracting it again with WinRAR.

Do you have any firewall running ?
Try disabling it before downloading.
Also where are you saving the RAR files ?

 

[LiPoUrR]

firewall is always disabled!!! and i am saving files to c (system partition)

 

[gladson1976]

Are you by any chance using Norton Internet Security ?

 

[Jonathan_King]

Disable any security program you have, for the time being.

Try saving to the desktop. Many programs have trouble saving to C:\Windows and other OS locations.

You say it is only bigger rar files. What do you consider to be "big"? what is the size of the one you are opening? I recommend using IZArc for archive files. I've used a few different programs and it is by far the best I've used.

can you download a rar file and try unzipping it on another PC to then you'll know if its windows or a download glitch
