Help with Simfiles please!

Hey everyone. First off, I didn't know where to post this, since I couldn't find a tech support topic and don't consider this a bug, so I chose to post it here.

Anyways, when I tried to download some new Simfiles for StepMania today, I had a little bit of trouble. I can download the file fine, but when I try to extract/unzip it, I have trouble. I get two error messages in a row. The first one says, "error [C:\Documents and Settings\Byron Robbins\My Documents\481.zip]: missing 1011 bytes in Zip file (attempting to process anyway)." Then, I have the option to hit either OK or Help. When I hit OK I get another error message. This one says, "The WinZip Wizard cannot open this file; it does not appear to be a vaild archive. If you downloaded this file, try downloading it again. If you want to add the file to an archive or open the archive, then drop the file again." Now, I'm not sure what all this means, considering I'm not very "computer smart," but I know it isn't letting me download songs. After that message I can either hit OK or Help, again. When I hit OK it just takes me to the main WinZip screen and doesn't extract the file.

Could anyone help me out here? I don't know what to do or how to fix this, and I'm having a major craving for more songs! Help please! Thanks a ton!

Use IE to download the files and use WinZip/WinRAR to extract them.

That's what I do, but I get the same problem.

Right click, save as didn't work. : / Oh well. I guess it's probably just my computer. It is a piece of trash, anyways. I'll live as long as it can atleast run FFR. ^_^;
