I get the same problem:
Click Angry Bird in Chrome web store
it takes me
to:https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aknpkdffaafgjchaibgeefbgmgeghloj?hl=en-GB
Click "Add to chrome"
Click "install" when prompted "install angry birds?
error window appears:"Extension Installation Failure"
Package is invalid: 'CRX_MAGIC_NUMBER_INVALID'

Google chrome 14.0.835.186
windows XP SP3

This very strange as I have also successfully installed this on another PC
running same version of windows/chrome, and also on a laptop running Vista

I wonder what is common between us (seeing as I am running W7). Do you use
AVG Free 2012?
