First of all, apologies to those of you having trouble installing the UDK.
To check the validity of the download, use the software here http://md5summer.org/ - this will create an md5 checksum on your local install to make sure it is correct.
The UDK installs several prerequisites required to run the editor... they can all be downloaded separately and installed individually. If you're having a problem with a specific redistributable, does the standalone installer for that component work? If it doesn't, does a reboot fix it? If it still doesn't install, does it tell you why not? If it does state the reason, please post here and we'll look into it (please include your OS, language, UAC on or off, and whether you are an admin in your machine specs).
It has been noted that pending Windows Updates and partially finished installs can stop the following installing; a reboot is always the first line of defence here.
It has also been noted that some virus checkers can break the install (especially AVG); try disabling that.
*Some folks are experiencing an error message asking for Windows XP service pack 3 when they are running Vista or Win7. The simplest solution is to run the installer an add -progressonly to the shortcut or command line. Another solution is here:
