1.05 corrupt exe

[Clarkie]

HoI_1.05_EU_ENG_Update.exe will not work. I have tried downloading this file several times from www.paradoxplaza.com. Upon running the installation, I am told that the executable has become corrupt and the file cannot be unpacked. The error message suggests obtaining a new copy of the file. This does not help. I am running the UK version of HOI (not that this matters as the executable fails before even beginning the patching process.) I'm using Windows XP Professional.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is the link you want.
Before DLing it again, make sure you delete it and clear your internet cache.
Also make sure you have administator rights on the XP account you are loged in on.

Thank you. This does seem to work. You may wish to check the link on the main paradox site (1.05 UK and Scandinavia) as this was the faulty download.

Same link, something just happened with the first attempt, then each time you were pulling from cache.

Right. My fault then. I did think I had deleted cache and download when triying to download again before I posted my problem here. Odd. At least the problem is gone now.

One of those strange glitches in the space time continum.
