I’ve been getting quite a few reports from people who are having difficulty downloading premium lists, specifically encountering errors that the file is damaged and cannot be repaired. Not everyone encounters the problem, and I’m really not sure what exactly is going on but I am trying to troubleshoot and hope to sort this out soon. The files themselves really are not corrupted in any way, but for some reason some browsers/readers are having difficulty downloading them. I need to investigate more fully, but in the meantime, if you encounter this problem, please try the following workaround:
Rather than clicking on the link in the regular way to open the file, RIGHT click on the link and choose “save link as” or “save file” or whatever variation displays on your computer. Save the file to your desktop or whatever folder you want, and then open the file from that location. This seems to work for some, but not all, people who’ve tried it.
If it doesn’t work for you, please email me at webmaster@asfaregion1.com and specify which premium list you’re having trouble with, and I’ll email the files to you directly.
I’m so sorry for the inconvenience! I’ll keep investigating the problem, and will include this troubleshooting information in future premium list announcements.
