Spybot update

Problem with my Spybot Search & Destroy. Everything is working fine EXCEPT "update". It said " bad check sum ". Please see screenshot link below :

ImageGrotto: Free Image and Screenshot Hosting

Should I go through the uninstall-- reinstall process, or there is something more to it ??
Please advise. Thank you.

No, try to get the updates from a different server first.

No. Your problem is not with SS&D itself, but with the update file you are
trying to download. Try it again, or try it from another site.

Hello,
What "different server" ? I'm from Canada. Am I not required to use the Canada Server ( which, by the way, has just one choice. ) ?
Please explain "another download mirror".

No, just pick one of the other servers in the list and see if it works
for you.
