Can't download 0.5, have tried various servers

I keep gettin a message half way throught the download saying something like" Could not download because could not read the source file". Or words to that effect.

I have tried 3 times now, all from 3 different servers.

What's going on?

Cheers

If you are going to download about 1.5 GB,I would suggest you either wait until 0.6 full is released or you just load the .607 beta rc,it is/will be more fun,and it will be of no use if you get used to .5 now,because 0.6 will be released quite soon and much has changed.

I had to download 0.5 again this weekend and I have done it with torrents as direct servers were too slow (<80KB/s). With torrent I get almost my max speed of 500KB/s for some reasons (good seeders probably) which I have not seen before

Yeah, suggest you wait for 0.6 to be released and use Torrents

Corrupted file, server failure....who knows

It happened to me too it is not that strange.
Torrents are more safe I suppose. I have not downloaded corrupted files when I used them.
And who knows when will be 0.6 released. Right now I play both versions as there are very few 0.6.7 servers.
