Are you able to download a CD (http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu) and try from that?

Hi, if you want the 32bit version of ubuntu installed instead of the 64bit you can download the 32bit (ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso) and stick it in the same folder as the wubi.exe, then run the wubi.exe. (you may need to disconnect from the internet so that it does not try downloading the 64bit)

Why don't you just download the CD? There is a copy of Wubi already on the CD. You can use Bittorrent or a local mirror to give you a faster download.

And you will also have the option of doing a proper Ubuntu install.

I believe Wubi downloads the 64-bit distribution if you have a 64-bit processor; it doesn't matter if your Windows is 32-bit or 64-bit.

I think I can wait to a better program administration and don't have any headache.

I don't see that a link gives you a mistaken program with no advice.

I supposed was a temporal error, but your indications seems to indicate that the error will continue and nobody is there to solution.

I don't want free problems.

Thank anyway

Best Regards.

I'll wait for two months and if the link continue the same i will fogot forever Wubi.

I have Ubuntu on CD, both versions 32 bits and 64 bits.

Exactly Ubuntu 8.10

:p

But I don't rely in a Wubi while the download of the official site don't go.
