Title: Cannot Download Mach3
Post by: michaelthomas on August 29, 2010, 09:36:36 AM

I can't seem to download Mach 3 from the site.  It says there is a problem with the server and that I might try back later.  I have, and was able to download......but the exe would not run.  Said bad crc, or something like that, would not decompress the file.

Anybody have and ideas?

The most common cause of not being able to download the installer is an overactive firewall (especially Sonicwalls) that sees the Mach3 parallel port driver as a virus and kills the download.  Try disabling (or reconfiguring) any firewalls that you have...

I wondered the same thing......I disabled windows firewall, and it still would not download.  Is there a chance that my AVG is giving me trouble?  I will remove that and give it a try, too.
