ACtually the real problem is the Nvidia4 chipset - in particular the firewall
Active Armor part. The default of "offloadable" corrupts files being
downloaded. Changing this default to "notoffloadable" 'fixes' this problem.
Once I found out about this "little" problem
www.nforcershq.com forum and
changed this setting the updates site works as advertised. It would saved me
a lot of angst and multiple retries of downloading files to have known about
this Nvidia problem sooner.
