Downloading with M$ often leads to incomplete files-you should try to
obtain a complete download using a more reliable OS.
experienced this myself when trying to get the SiS630 driver.

No it doesnt. Worst case if you down load text files you have to convert line endings. Binary downloads are.... binary..... ;)

I can see if you didn't realize that *nix and dos have an incompatible opinion on what the end of a line in a text file looks like, but its not that the file is incomplete. Its that when you download in ascii mode the line end conversion happens automagically (most times).
