	When I tried to update my copy of Stata/SE 8 today, I ran into a 
problem.  The ado files appear to have updated correctly, but not the 
executable.  After each of several attempts, I get the following error 
message:

. update executable
(contacting http://www.stata.com)

Executable update log
    1.  verifying "/Applications/Stata/" is writeable
    2.  downloading new executable
file transmission error (checksums do not match)
http://www.stata.com/updates3/mac_se.osx/StataSE.tgz not copied
r(639);


	I realize the purpose of this list is not tech support, but I'd 
appreciate any assistance while I wait for my local IT staff to 
investigate.  Thanks in advance.
