I have exactly the same problem. I downloaded the patch
for WIN XP 32... tried to install, but got the
cryptographic error. I deleted the catroot2 folder, and
tried to reinstall. it went further that time, but still
gave me the error. I went back and looked, and viola, the
catroot2 folder was back.

HELP!!!

(I am also haveing the same connectivity issues as
described below)
