I just checked, and my tests show that the installer has the right
checksums for the AIR SDKs.  The SDKs are huge, so some people do have a
better chance of corruption on these big downloads.

One trick to can try is to pre-load the Installer's cache.  If you right
click in the Installer, you can turn on its download cache and pick a
folder for downloads.  Then if you can manually download the AIR SDK you
can place it in the cache.  On my Mac, I have the cache in
/Users/<username>/InstallerCache and AIR 25 is in
air/mac/download/25.0/AdobeAIRSDK.dmg

But you might then run into an out-of-memory issue we are having with the
Installer on Windows.

Another option is to use Ant.  Grab the binary distribution for an Apache
Flex release and unzip it and run:

  ant -f installer.xml -Dflash.sdk.version=25.0 -Dair.sdk.version=25.0

I think you can also install with an older AIR SDK and use shell or batch
files to overlay a new AIR SDK.  I haven't done it myself but see past
email threads where folks explain how to do it.
