AFter being away for awhile, I went to do all my updates... and when I went to update my spybot... I got this message next to all updates available.... !!! Bad checksum!

What is that, and how can I fix it?

Thanks,
Carolyn

Pebblecreek (Carolyn):

"Bad checksum" indicates that the download did not complete properly (the MD5 hash value did not match what was expected). See:
Why do I receive the message "update is forbidden" / "bad checksum!!!"?

Change the download server and try again:

Thank you so much... such a simple thing, but I never ran into that before...

God Bless You,
