Free books that were listed as Adobe DRM Epub are okay... it's just the ones listed as "Download Epub" that come up as corrupted. When you try to open them from the Kobo, they come up with the error message. When you try to open them from Kobo Desktop on the computer, it crashes the program. The only solution I could work out was to delete each of the free books manually from the "My Library" section of the Kobo site, wait a couple of hours and then reload them again. (The ones I tried to reload instantly still came up as corrupted). It took an hour or so (I have over a hundred free books on my Kobo), but it's working fine now. I'm just annoyed at how much wasted time was spent on this and how inadequate the response from the Kobo site was. (Having said this, I have pruned my library a little in the process and left out a few of the books I never look at).
