Okay here's my situation:
I've just got my computer back from being repaired, no viruses, clean hard drive, the internet connection works, and I go to install City of Heroes.
The updater runs for a couple of hours and as it is almost done, I get an error saying that one of the files my be corrupt and the updater would have to verify them. I let it run overnight, and it is still stuck on fixing texEnemies4.pigg. All it does it get to 5.3 M/1.2G and retarts. Can anyone help?

Well the first thing I'd suggest is to completely delete all of the data installed so far and start again from scratch.

Also, when you say clean hard drive do you mean it was wiped or it's a brand new drive? It could be that there's a defect on the part of the drive that it's attempting to write to.

Step one - delete the checksum file in the foder.
You might also want to go into the subfolders and delete that pigg file. Try again

SpeedFan, among the many things it does, is test hard drives.

Also, running a disk check would not be a bad thing.
