Build Identifier: indigor

I attempted to install Eclipse from this url: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-developers/indigor lots of times using several PC both 32 bit and 64 bit some running Vista and others Windows 7 both with IE and Firefox from multiple mirrors and in every case WinZip is reporting that the zip file is invalid.  The Winzip error is WZ40. I tried using the Winzip repair tool and it wont fix it.  Can you put a working .zip file on the mirrors?  If I am missing something, please let me know.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a Windows 7 or Windows Vista
2. Go to the URL mentioned
3. Select windows 32 or 64
4. Pick any mirror
5. after the file is downloaded Winzip complains that the file is bad.

And what if you don't pick a mirror and download from the main site from eclipse.org?
