I had two failures with exactly the same bad md5sum, but I just tried it again, and it worked fine. I notice that the IP address for the download site was different - perhaps there are several actual download sites (the IP resolves to each of them in turn to spread the load) and one of them actually does have a bad copy?
Well, then complain to Adobe about therir broken mirrors.
I cleared my dns cache, tried again and this time I got a good copy. Finally.
Could you tell us a good mirror IP, please?
