This is only to inform You:
When I download version **2.32** from Your own website:
_[http://mp3tag.de/en/download.html](http://mp3tag.de/en/download.html)_
or from SnapFiles:
_[http://www.snapfiles.com/get/mp3tagde.html](http://www.snapfiles.com/get/mp3tagde.html)_
I got consistent downloaded files with different sizes, without the normal icon and files, which do not work properly. It seems to come up a DOS-box with errors, when the downloaded file is attempted to be executed. 😲
When I download version **2.32a** from Your own website:
_[http://developer.mp3tag.de/](http://developer.mp3tag.de/)_
or when I download version **2.31** from [Tucows.com](http://Tucows.com):
_[[http://www.tucows.com/preview/335140](http://www.tucows.com/preview/335140)_
or when I download version **2.32a** OR **2.32** from:
_[http://www.free-codecs.com/Mp3tag\_download.htm](http://www.free-codecs.com/Mp3tag_download.htm)_
everything are fully OK. 😃
Conclusion: I don't have a problem myself, because I can use one of the succesfully download-ways mentioned above, and I don't know the value of this information for You - but now I have given You my experiences!
Yours
John

John,
I've just checked the downloads and everything works fine here. Are you using a download manager by chance?
Best regards,

I am not sure, what Your term "by chance" means? If it goes for the browser, I can inform You, that I - as many times every week succesfully - use the normal "Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp\_sp2\_gdr.050301-1519" and the operativsystem: Microsoft Windows XP, Home edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 2.
To day at 14:17 o'clock (EU-summertime) I tried a download again from
_[http://mp3tag.de/](http://mp3tag.de/) **en** /download.html_
and jeg get again a faulty file!
So I tryed to download from Your german website:
_[Mp3tag - Download](http://www.mp3tag.de/download.html)_
and the file got downloaded succesfully.
The " **good**" file has the size 1.382.344 bytes in the properties ( **1350 kb** in the overview) -
but the " **bad**" file has only 1.353.813 bytes in the properties ( **1323 kb** in the overview).
If You are interested, I can send You the bad file from today: Fx You can send me a e-mail-address, I an use to send it as an appendix.
Is it perhaps a possibility, that the browserprogram can give a "finish-message" before time? Could Microsoft newest patches about the security have a role under circumstances?
I shall also inform You, that I later to day tried to download from
_[Mp3tag - Download](http://mp3tag.de/en/download.html)_
with - in stead of the normal leftclicking - **right** clicking followed by "Save destination as" - and then I got the file downloaded succesfully!
Could the problems under circumstances have with the popups to do?
Yours
John

Sorry, this is unreproduceable for me.
Maybe there was a server error when you've first downloaded the setup and your browser now still caches the "bad" version.
Both the international and the german site are using the same self-written load-balancing script, which just redirects to the real destiantion of the file.
Best regards,

My PC resets automatically the cache by every shut down - and the PC was just started up, where I did the first download yesterday, so it shouldn't be the case.
Never mind - I have informed You about the matter, which was my intention - and I became later a useful file - so I will stop now about this theme.

To day I have run Your program for the very first time - and I must express to You: it looks very nice and logical.
Yours
John
