Can someone tell me what this means? I'm not exactly sure what it is affecting or what it actually is. I first noticed it with Kazaa - the program will not run and I cannot delete it because I get this message as well. Some other files on my computer say the same thing and I can't open or delete them as well. (HTML files)
I suppose it could be a virus, but I really don't have a clue. Could someone help me out? Thanks!

This is a software error. To resolve this issue, install the latest update for the software.

here's some help..i don't deserve the credit for the info cuz i pasted it. but in laymans terms its an error with info being sent. solution resend or don't at all.
Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is a method of detecting errors in data transmission. A CRC is data that is sent with a block of data, when received by where the information is being sent to the CRC can be checked to verify if data was all received.
Cause:
This error message could be generated by any of the following reasons:
During the transmission of the file it became corrupt or bad
The file was sent inappropriately
The device being opened from is bad or contains errors
The file itself is bad or the program attempting to open the file is bad.
Solution:Network / Modem transmission issues
If you are attempting to open the file from a network / modem it is likely the network either is encountering collisions or other errors during the data transmission. Note: if the file is being sent through a session such as FTP or Telnet it is possible that it may not be sent properly. If the file is a text file the file must be sent in a ASCII or TEXT mode. If however the file is a program or non-text file it must be sent as a Binary file.
Attempt to re-send the file.
Try Alternate method of sending the file.
Verify the file was sent properly (ASCII / TEXT / Binary)
Verify with Network Administrator that the network is not experiencing issues.
Removable media issuesIf the file is attempting to be opened from a removable media such as a Zip disk / Floppy diskette it is possible data corruption is being encountered on the diskette itself or when coming from the removable media.
Try an alternate diskette or media
CD issuesIf the file is being opened from a CD-ROM it is possible the CD is dirty or scratched causing read errors. If the CD was burned it is possible that it was burned improperly.
Clean the CD-ROM
Re-burn the software
File is bad or program attempting to open the file is badFinally, if the file is being opened from the hard disk drive or other media it is likely that the file is corrupted or the program opening the file is corrupted.
Download the file again.
Reinstall the program being used to open the file
Attempt to open with a different program
If the file is on the hard disk drive run scandisk / defrag
Assume the file is bad and cannot be recovered
