I am getting a "Package Operations Failed" message at the 95% mark of each download.

Details show "Reading database" for each 5 percentage segment until

Reading database ... 95%dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error 
aborting: failed in buffer_read(fd): files list for package `gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly'

I have tried to download a number of piece of software (most recently PDF Editor) and am getting the same message at the same point in the download.

Is there something wrong with my Ubuntu version, a virus or is it the software being downloaded? Using 10.04 LTS.

P.S. Same problem when trying to download updates.
