NSIS Error - Can't Install Scratch?

I used to have Scratch, months ago but our computer got a virus so we formatted the computer, but now I can't download it because after saying that I trust the publisher and hit "Run", it shows a message:
"NSIS Error
Installer integrity check has failed. Common causes include incomplete download and damaged media. Contact the installer's author to obtain a new copy.
More information at:
http://nsis.sf.net/NSIS_Error"
I'm running a Windows XP, on a broadband connection, with Internet Explorer 8. Help!

P.S. Why has Scratch not had a new version after 1.4 in 3 years?

Re: NSIS Error - Can't Install Scratch?

It's good practice to read what the error says and follow the instructions:
"Installer integrity check has failed. Common causes include incomplete download and damaged media. Contact the installer's author to obtain a new copy."  wink

As for the P.S., the Scratch Team is developing Scratch 2.0, which is supposed to be a major upgrade to the program. It's being remade completely into Flash, which will take some time.

But I'm not getting it through CD, I'm getting it through the website, so how do I get a "new copy"? Sorry if I'm missing something.  smile
