Photoshop says this.

Could not complete your request because it is not a valid photoshop docurment..


Had a look at a ((fix it propram on the net ) it said that no header could be found.

Lost a hell of alot of kits time etc etc ...
Have not had a drink now for over ten years but as of today the bottle looks like a good way to get over this...

How about posting one here so that others can try and make sure this is not a local issue? Online validators are not always reporting correctly. Any specific incident that has ahppened with your computer (hard disk corruption, virus etc.?).

A bunch of graphic files will not just corrupt all at once without a reason - so I think it might be the program rather than the files.
Cheers,
Martin

Have you tried opening the files with another graphics program, like GIMP? Just a thought....

Tried downloading your file, and my Kaspersky AV indicated a Trojan virus.

Mark

Having eventually got your file downloaded, when I had fought off all the adds and stuff the site wants to send me, I didn't find any threat showing against your psd file by Norton.

However, I have tried everything I have to open your file but without success so far. I can imagine how you must be feeling so I will keep trying.

Forgive my old and poor memory but I seem to remember scaring myself once with something similar and found I had done something with a Windows setting, security I think.

There was a big Windows security update released within the last week, it stopped my MS Live Mail programme from working. I wonder if this has a bearing on your problem?
