    Downloaded corrupted files
    I have been using AVG freeware for several years and it suddenly stopped working. I have been trying to download a new copy for two days and, at the end of the download, I get a message stating that the file is corrupted. This has happened twice. Today I tried to download the Avira :confused:antivir software and had the same result. What is wrong with my computer and how can I fix it? Any help will be most appreciated.
