Sounds like the download got corrupted so just delete the download redownload and you should be good.

Daniel,
I'd try as Kit said first and download the file again. If that doesn't help, please let me know. It would also be helpful to know what OS you are running, and which version of Moneydance you're downloading.

Hi Kit -
I just tried again and it still didn't work. I've now tried to download
and then run the file as well as just running the file straight from the
temp directory. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10.
Live Long and Prosper,
Danny

Hello - Have I lost you? Is there a legitimate bug or am I doing something wrong?

This has come up before. Take a look at this thread: http://help.infinitekind.com/discussions/problems/2825-quality-stan...

The link jbynt provided will solve the problem. Essentially click ignore when you see the error message or use gdebi to install the .deb file instead of the ubuntu software center.
