Not a valid Win 32 application

I am loading an Winzip self extracting .exe application (it is an Access
2007 development program) and am getting a message saying it is not a valid
Win 32 application. Others have loaded this same file on Vista just fine.
Any ideas of what is wrong.

Thanks,
J

Try right-clicking on the program and "open with" winzip.

RE: Not a valid Win 32 application

If repeated downloads all result in a corrupt file, the problem is either
with your Internet connection, security software or the download server

Try again later or tomorrow

Try a different browser. Your current browser is not able to download the complete file.
