Enable settings->zip settings->full structure scan
Enable settings->zip settings->additional flush

Turn on rebuilder->recompress.

It's quite normal that zipfiles in the internet have bad zip structures (not bad zipdata, two different things..you usually can unpack the data while the structures are bad...but bad structures can cause a lot of problems).

Enabling the upper mentioned zip options will first try to repair bad zipstructures and when it fails, it will skip the file, so you won't be able to use a bad zipfile. The file will be listed in the warningswindow below the scanner/rebuilder/merger.

If you already use rebuilder recompress option and an enabled full structure zip mode, you probably have a system problem like bad ram, bad ram timing, buggy VIA chipset or a bad IDE cable. All these can cause random file corruption.
