Yes, I've seen exactly this error and there isn't a workaround as such. It indicates network data corruption, and in my case a customer had a cable modem that was corrupting fewer than 20 packets in a 1Gb file transfer. After changing network cards, cables, etc, I finally convinced the cable company to replace the modem, and the problem went away.

Not sure if that helps or not -
