Cumulus Version 1.9.1 install file corrupt

I've tried downloading and installing CumulusSetup.exe for the latest version using both Firefox and IE
File size is 4.06 MB (4,261,030 bytes) when downloaded and when I try to install I get a message to say the file is corrupt.

I download the file from here http://sandaysoft.com/downloads and don't use a 'download manager'.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Rickey

I can't think of anything else to suggest, if you're not using a download manager. The file clearly isn't corrupt, and people are downloading and using it all the time, so it must be something specific to your system. That's not much help, I know - sorry.

Have you tried right-clicking and 'save link as...' ?

Thanks for the suggestion Steve but still no go. Can you confirm what the correct file size should be. My Internet is currently crippled so I wonder whether the slow download maybe causing the problem. I will try again in a couple of weeks when I'm back up to speed.

Love the program by the way. Works very well. Only issues is a bodgey rain recording a couple of months ago which I was wanting to fix using the new version. It can wait.

Regards, Rickey

You've got the file size correct, and so do people who use download managers, it's just that the content isn't correct. The server with the file on it doesn't seem to support 'resume' correctly, so the file doesn't get assembled correctly. It's a bit odd, because it used to be OK.

I'm wondering if the Wordpress download plugin that I use is the cause of the problem; I'll look at changing it.
