This is especially true for compressed files like .rar and .zip. This mainly happens due to network transmission errors. For an example, lets say you are downloading a 10MB file. Technically, it downloaded as 1MB blocks. For such a block we call a 'data packet'. The size of a data packet and how fast it transfers depend on your connection. When these data packets transfer over the network, there can be errors. Its like a road. In this case the road is similar to your network connection. Data packets are like vehicles travel on a road. There can be collisions, traffic and stuff. So If a data packet gets damaged on the way to your computer over the network, the file will not work. Most software does some error checking on each data packet and request it again if it is damaged. But we can't guarantee it. My preferred way to download large files is via a torrent client. Its normally very safe and damages are very minimum. But the problem is we can't find torrents for all the files. Its a good option for movies and games. Hope this helps. Bit technical but I think you are ok with it.And remember don't try to repair the corrupted file(especially .rar or .zip files). There are software which claim to fix broken files but non works. technically its not possible to repair a damaged file.</blockquote>
