[Quoted] I ran into the same thing couple of years back when trying to download Oracle 9i using Linux RH7.3 (Netscape). After some frustrating hours, I managed to download the three zip files but all of them were corrupt. Did the same download using Win2K and IE afterwards and it was all good. Since then, I only use IE for downloads.

Looks like Bill Gates has bunch of gremlins sitting on top of the OTN servers :->)
