Problem while launching game 'File corrupted!'

[Bad_0ne]

Hello,
I've downloaded the demo yesterday evening, then played a few hours and had to leave. But this morning, when I wanted to play again, I got that error message :

File corrupted! . This program has been manipulated and maybe
it's infected by a Virus or cracked. This file won't work anymore.

I haven't modified anything since yesterday, already tried to uninstall and then reinstall the game, to download the setup again (from different sites) and to run the game with my antivirus de-activated.
The problem is still there, and I can't play the game anymore...

If anyone has a solution...

Hey!

I have the same problem. I had Mount&Blade installed some time ago and it was working, but then after a monthly break from the game I wanted to play again but the same error showed up. I tried reinstalling it but it wouldn't work. So I got really pissed off and just formated my whole computer...everything...then I tryed to reinstall it back but still the error would show. I formated and reinstalled a copy of XP professional SP1 several times ( about 5 times - once including SP2) and then I intalled the version 0.950 and it worked!  BUT!! I wanted to update it to the latest version and so i did but then the error showed up again.  ah... So I reinstalled and formated the whole computer again and installed the 0.950 version again and played it for some time. After closing the game (doing nothing to it) I tryed to run it again but the error showed up! I tryed downloading from diffrent servers but still..what the ef?

I don't have the slightest clue what's happening! The name of the message is Themida right? I tryed to google it and it says that's acctually some kind of virus (though many people say it's just security Taleworlds use to protect). So I dowloaded an antispyware which says it removes Themida (AntiSpyware 2009) but it didn't find anything.

What could be wrong with it...I don't want to use the crack and never did but I'm afraid that by pruchasing this excellent game wouldn't solve the problem. I downloaded from diffrent servers, formated the disk completely (even scanned it thru), installed fresh copy of XP professional, but the darn error still persists!

Please if anyone has any suggestions, solutions or ideas post them here!
