If you find that the client installer cannot be installed after download, and prompts a message similar to “xxx file corrupted”, it may be caused by an unstable connection while the download is in progress. We recommend that you try to download the file again.

We recommend you use BitTorrent, a peer-to-peer file-sharing protocol. Although the initial starting speed is very slow, you may find that the speed will gradually increase. In addition to this, the speed of a BitTorrent download has no limit; in other words, this means that the more people that download the file, the faster the speed.

Another choice would be to use JDownloader, IDM, or similar download managers to process the downloading of the file; this will ensure that the file is not corrupted during the process of downloading.
