NSIS Error when trying to uninstall Pidgin

[Derrick East]

Daniel,
Thank you for the quick response. Unfortunately your suggestions did not help. I downloaded and installed from a different mirror. I also verified the thumbprint value of the certificate and all appears to be in order.

Do you have any other suggestions?

The most likely cause is that your download didn't complete successfully - I'd suggest downloading the installer again, if necessary from a different mirror.

If you follow the instructions to validate the installer signature (http://cp.mcafee.com/d/5fHCN8SyOqen7SkQm73tPqdSkTChOqbNJ6XarP8Vcs-rhKOCYOejhd79J6XbbP3O9EVvdEv6cH5u_qj1mS-B2R9-HjBPuS-B2R9-HjBPq91BN1BB_HY-essvjWZOWqpEVvVVBxCWvbnhIyCHtVfBgY-F6lK1FJ4SyrLOtXTLuZXTdTdAVPmEBC8upY-GTNVqi16keAHxyhmm24v7FTCjYuDtrr5t8_guDuAycfg0M1pggGoE6MFfjP_zgSxI9uvSPQY_ioa8yvbCQPhOzsS2_id40c60Qod40R6doCy0Mj-1EwD4Ja14QgjGq86UixiuDDCy0big8OwrosdPoQUefpVhOhV),
that will also validate that your download was successful.
