We don't know. We don't know what OS and programs you're using, you
might have a problem. We don't know what ISP you're using, they might
be the problem. We don't know what mirror you're using, they might have
a problem.
More information is needed...
and where can i get a clean version or how can I fix the corrupted
versions?
I don't think you could fix a broken download. But if it's simply
aborting before finishing, rather than being mangled along the way,
there are tools that support resuming a download. There are ways of
downloading which do checks as it downloads, such as bittorrent. You
can buy copies already on disc from some places. And you can sometimes
get a free disc from someone (I'm in Australia, so there's bound to be
someone much closer than me - it'd take ages to post something from here
to there).

I had downloaded via http a DVD iso that failed sha1.
Someone suggested to me that perhaps http & ftp might
shut down before the entire download completed. This
person suggested using wget instead. When I used wget
I successfully downloaded a DVD iso that passed sha1.
You may want to try using wget to get your iso.
