Gwx Exe Omg Wtf?

What on earth is going on with the single file install for GWX3.0 I downloaded?

I downloaded this file a few weeks back onto my PC and it installed no problem - even over a not completely "clean" install of SH3. However, recently I've put SH3 on my girlfriend's PC but I'm having hee-uge issues with getting GWX on there too.

The issue seems to be that the file cannot be transported from my PC to hers no matter what method I use. I've written a DVD ROM and put two copies on my trusty memory stick (which I use for work to carry files all the time). The DVD data was verifies at the time of writing, and the size of the memory stick files was the same as the source file. Every single copy of my downloaded GWX3.0 install fails with a "source file is corrupt" mesage at varying stages from right at the start (after you click the installation language) to some random point part way through.

I've never had so many problems simply moving a file from one place to another and I am at a complete loss as to what is going on. OK, its a large file but nothing like a DVD image for example.

Tonight as a last resort I'm going to download it onto her PC from scratch.
