Suite fails md5checksum

Just downloaded Portable Apps Suite from three different sources and they all fail the md5checksum. Anyone else notice this?

SourceForge

Just downloaded the Suite from the SourceForge site and it passes the md5checksum, the files must be different right?

Yup

If the md5checksum is different, the files have been altered. Stick with SourceForge as your source.

Where did you get it from that it was different?

Ok, From the "Download

Ok, From the "Download Standard" button on the suite page the mirrors for Atlanta, Phoenix and New York all fail the checksum. I haven't tried any of the others.
However if I click on the link below

Your download should begin shortly. If it does not, try
http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/portableapps/portable_app...

and download that file it passes the checksum utility.
Hope this helps.

Not for me...

I just checked my original and a download from Phoenix and they matched perfectly to the posted MD5. Is it possible your PC has a firewall or something else affecting the file in transit?
