[Wizzandabe]

i have downlaoded a 300mb file for kazaa, and i extract it and it comes up with a CRC error. is there any app that can fix this. i have herd that winace dose the job but that ant confermed. well is there?

nothing can fix a crc file not unless you download with emule or edonkey these 2 programs have the ability
to fix corrupted crc downloads its just that the fastrack network is to old and unreliable, if 1 person has a corruted file and he passes it on then everybody will have it to, spreads like a virus.

only way kazaa can fix it is download the file again, but then you can get a diffrent crc file error
as i had several times.

Do a search on K for the file that has the CRC error in.

i encountered this yesterday
that rar pack contained an iso file, and after it is extracted, winrar reported a crc error
but i still got that file extracted. i terminated the winrar thread right after the whole file was extrated before winrar had time to make a crc check (seems this error occurs just at the end of that package, which i think might be a common problem)
