"Bad Checksum" problems are usually caused by overloaded download servers.
To change download servers and for a workaround for "Bad Checksum" errors please see:

Note: The download server can be changed after the "Search for Updates" and before clicking "Download Updates". So if you find a server that works well, you can start by using that server in the future. Also note that if you want (not necessarily recommended) you can select a server and then right click on the button and "Set this server as the preferred download location". If you do that Spybot will select that sever rather than a random server for future updates.
Additional information:
- When updating, why do I get an error message that the "update is forbidden" / "bad checksum!!!"?

Thanks for that reply, I tried other sites, a couple confused me for when I did, a balck box appeared (like a chkdsk) then vanished and that update vanished also.
I did eventually find one that worked (europe 2) so I have taken a printscreen to print and remind me, if I am right to assume it will be that one each time???
Also, please remind me, should I be notified of a reply to my post?
Thanks again to all that answered, also I notice, I posted in 2 places, sorry
Although it depends on many factors, if that mirror worked well for you this time there is a good chance it will work next time.Originally Posted by gudda96
