Hi,

Best Regards,

Do not panic! They are compressed and checksums are correct, but your browser is trying to be helpful and is decompressing them for you.

$ wget http://www.measurement-factory.com/tmp/ecap/checksums
$ wget http://www.measurement-factory.com/tmp/ecap/ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz

$ file ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz
ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, ...

$ gunzip -vt ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz
ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz: OK

$ md5sum ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz
2647c1125c69bd83d66f56bee56a9a68 ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz

$ fgrep ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz checksums
MD5 (ecap_clamav_adapter-2.0.0.tar.gz) = 2647c1125c69bd83d66f56bee56a9a68

Thanks a lot! Not used to use Chrome. Firefox doesn't operate like that...
