the firefox fixlets worked for me, but the Chrome one is not. it looks like when I download the file in the URL manually and check the sha1 and sha256 values, they don’t match what was placed in the fixlet.

here is the original fixlet prefetch:

prefetch googlechromestandaloneenterprise64.msi sha1:6127f15cef8d4d504bbd244ada5f4a44a3c4d686 size:48718008  https://dl.google.com/tag/s/appguid%3D%7B8A69D345-D564-463C-AFF1-A69D9E530F96%7D%26iid%3D%7B03FE9563-80F9-119F-DA3D-72FBBB94BC26%7D%26lang%3Den%26browser%3D4%26usagestats%3D0%26appname%3DGoogle%2520Chrome%26needsadmin%3Dprefers%26ap%3Dx64-stable/dl/chrome/install/googlechromestandaloneenterprise64.msi sha256:f7f742f3542118c151d055fa8b0cb7fd143b514d03c06ebb87dc0c19d82316ce

here is the results if I download that file manually:

Q: (Name of it, SHA1 of it, SHA2_256 of it, size of it) of file "googlechromestandaloneenterprise64.msi" of folder "C:\temp"
A: googlechromestandaloneenterprise64.msi, 0e4c532790fd37d68192b2966f83e3b930fc10bc, 77c78d1842860d60e41294bf26b51b6bd71f6acf15e439a827b7f248addc5c7b, 48771256

is this problem unique to my environment?
