No idea what it means, have got it before on corrupted zip files, I suspect this file is similarly corrupted.
BTW you're not alone, I had the same problem yesterday when trying to update spybot too, tried it on two different machines, but no go!

A "bad check sum" means the file was corrupt either in transit or at the source.
Check sum is a method by checking the amount of bytes in a file. In the bytes don't match the expected value (check sum) then the file is corrupt.

Help it helps ... and it isn't your computer ... could be the download (network) or source file.

Cheers!
