Lots of complaints about "bad checksum" at the SpybotS&D forum:

"Patrick M. Kolla (PepiMK), said that there was a downtime in the servers, so I'm assuming that is probably what is causing the bad checksums.

"It appears that the www.safer-networking.org/updates/spybotsd.ini file which controls the updates was released before the updates were actually staged on the update mirrors.

I suggest that you try again after the 2008-11-04 or 2008-11-05 updates are announced in the Announcements forum."
