Wednesday, June 9, 2004 by bluesman219 | Discussion: Stardock Software
I've been trying to run my update on FX but everytime I try I get an error message telling me the "incorrect file size" Can somebody give me some info on how to correct this problem? Thanks.

I want to make sure I have this right....you downloaded SDC (the link I gave you) and installed it. When you then opened SDC and clicked on the WindowsFX app. to install it gave you an invalid URL error?

That's weird....
OK....two things:
When you open SDC are you in fact logged in. (check your reg. info in the lower right corner and make sure that info is correct)
Do you have a firewall up and if you do, who's

Yeah yrag I'm logged in. As far as a firewall I have Norton antivirus andother than that whatever firewall windows has. I run spysweeper if that helps.
I've never had an issue with d/ling as long as I've been coming here though.

I got one of those tricky fingers yrag. I sure did double-click. Also, I keep my security in internet options on medium.

Phil....that would be a downgrade 
In SDC in the upper right corner click on 'Show Pre-release Versions'
Now what FX version do you show available?
