MD5 checksum

I downloaded the xemacs PPC RPM from the Yellow Dog
ftp site last night and got an MD5 checksum error when I
tried to install it. So I tried again by installing directly
from the ftp site (i.e., "rpm -ivh ftp://blah.blah.blah/blah...")
and got the same checksum error. Does this indicate a problem
with the package, or is it just getting corrupted in transit
every time? (It's 18.7 MB and I've got a dialup connection,
so I could certainly believe something went wrong in the hour
or so it takes to download it, but twice in a row?)
