Problems downloading Rar and Zip files

Post by mango1951 »

Hi to all.

I have a problem when I download zip or rar files. Sometimes they download with crc errors. My computer has 2 partitions so I use Windows XP and Mint 10 now, but I had the same problem with Mint 9 (Gnome and XFCE), but never happens with Windows. It is the same computer, the same internet conexion, even the same web pages.

Any ideas?
Thanks a lot

I download with Firefox, Jdownloader or FreeRapidDownloder and the problem is the same. I use the same programs with Windows.

Thanks anyway
