xtracting to "c:\unzipped\ShipSim2008\"
Use Path: yes   Overlay Files: no
Extracting Setup.exe
bad CRC b53eebd2  (should be 5b0fed75)

I have tried downloading from location 1 and 2 but the same thing is happening..Can you please help me.I feel very sad that I can't use my ship sim.I have winzip installed in my pc.Should I remove win zip and try downloading again.I am not sure what exactly I should do.I want to get into my ship sim.I will be very happy if someone helps me.
                              Thank you in advance

crc (cyclic redundancy check) ist ein Verfahren welches durch die Ermittlung einer Prüfsumme einen Fehler bei der Datenübertragung fesstellen kann. Im Klartext: Die Prüfsumme der gelesenen und geschriebenen Daten muss identisch sein ansonsten gibt es einen bad crc.
Sieht ganz nach defekten sektoren auf deiner Festplatte aus. Mach mal ein checkdisk von deiner platte, mal sehen was rauskommt.

Looks like an error on your harddisk. Make a checkdisk and see what the system tells you.

Try it from:

I hope it works!

This mirror is many faster than the official mirrors, but the file is the same.

Do you have enough free space on that drive? Some Zip programs sometimes falsely detect a CRC error when running out of space.

Otherwise I would use a download manager like Free Download Manager:

Have you tried another program to unzip it? If you use XP there is one built in to the OS. You can get access to this again by deleteing the zip programs.

I have so far tried 2 different zipping utillities.I get the same message saying file is corrupt.This evening I  have sent an e mail to customer service of ship sim  stating my problem .I  hope that they will get back to me.The sadest part is I bought Ship Sim on Monday morning and still I am not ble to use it.

Hi Ravi, how big is the .zip file?  (if complete should be approx 647mb)
