That error means exactly what it says. The download is damaged.

Make sure that your system is virus/spyware free.
Also make sure that you are using a browser that supports pausing/restarting downloads or use a download manager.
You should also think about downloading large files to somewhere other than your documents folder. Having multigigabyte files in your profile really makes it hard for Windows to shut down/reboot properly.

Try using the Bit Torrent download as it is more robust and tolerant of network glitches.
