How to repair ISO file


I think that any of you have experienced the following situation at least once in your life. You download the DVD image of a Linux distribution package or some rare game (it's not that I'm not for piracy, but things happen) with some download manager like FlashGet or Wget and the image does not work - the checksum does not match.
