Force.com 3.5 installation error

I'm trying to install the latest IDE 3.5 but keep receiving an error while Eclipse downloads the files.  I've tried fresh installs of Eclipse 3.5.2 and re-adding the Force.com IDE site http://www.adnsandbox.com/tools/ide/install/ but I still get the same error.

This sounds like some kind of networking/connectivity issue, perhaps where the file transfer is incomplete and therefore Eclipse can't validate the jar file(s).  What OS are you using and what Eclipse bundle (not just 3.5.2)?

You think perhaps our proxy at work is causing file transfer issues?

- What OS are you using
