>I've a little application that downloads via HTTP a file from the inet, sometimes I get a wrong EXE file, if I try to run it, it says "not a valid win32 app" or if it is an app, the VFP says "there is no object file", this is causing me some trouble with the downloads.

Hector, before transfering the exe put it into a ZIP file. The UnZip program will automaticlaly check for file integrity and if the exe can be extracted then it will be as the original. This has two obvious advantages (a) smaller files (b) optional password protection (not 100% secure but its better than nothing).
