    I've already tried to clean it...
    Copy? You mean just open the explorer and use Ctrl+C and then Ctrl+V??? Or there is some more trincket to do?

    EDIT: Strange..the problem is that I can't open the cab files..my WinZip just don't accept it to open saying that "...the signature bytes required by the Microsoft CAB specification are missing". What the hells does it means???

    WinZip? *.cab files aren't archives, that's why you can't open them with WinZip. Don't even try to open them.

    What he's recommending is do copy the *.cab files to your hard drive. Honestly, I doubt that will work. What's your OS?
