Hi everyone, hope someone can help with this. I updated to version
2.84 last Friday. Every time I've tried to download anything since, I
get the attached error message. Any ideas as to what's gone wrong?

Many thanks

This happens for every download? What if you delete the partial file
found here and try again:

C:\Users\Midfield General\Desktop\iPlayer Recordi
ngs\Casualty_Series_28_-_9._Love_Hurts_b03cnmzj_default.partial.mp4.flv

If you updated from a pre-2.83 (or early 2.83) version, did you remove
any of the swfurl error corrections you might have made? Details here
(see 'Reverting you Changes' halfway down the page):
