I used the media check for test2 and had no problems (with that) .. all
three CDs passed first time.
Maybe your problem isn't with the CDs/ISOs after all...
I can't get test3 yet.... I was only about 15% done downloading when the rug
got pulled out from under me.... now it seems the release is delayed a
bit....
