well gtk2 is just know to have problems with high CPU usage and such, but not with screwing up the hashing....

which wxGTK version or you on? 2.4.2 or 2.5... something?
because if you are using 2.4.2 with gtk2 this would be really bad bad bad, high CPU and such...
and maybe the high CPU usage messes up your hashing ;)

I monitor my CPU usage and it's never too high; I have a PIII 550 Mhz, so I would really notice it if it was happening.

Last night I noticed that the behaviour is really, really weird: when the message "downloaded part number xx is corrupt", the part isn't "deleted" from the progress bar, and is detected corrupted when the file is "completed" (along with others that weren't reported!!!). Is this the normal behaviour of the app?

The parts that are detected corrupt are always the same, plus others that vary from hashing to hashing.

The file is a movie, I tried to watch it using mplayer and I can see it OK.  :O

OK, I will when I go home (I'm at work now), but in the meanwhile, just for you to know, I'm having the same problem with all the files  ;)

Well, yesterday I recompiled wxGTK and aMule making sure everything is linked against GTK1 and not 2, but that didn't solve the problem. Next step: I'll try with another GNU/Linux installed somewhere else.

Well, I redownloaded the files I was downloading and I'm getting less corrupted parts (like 3 with the file being 80% complete). I'll repost when the files reach completion, but there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel  ;)

Not sure if it still matters, but you should probably also try to recompile zlib with less aggressive flags. In fact, you would do yourself a favor if you did some reading on the problems with using aggressive optimization C(XX)Flags (at the Gentoo forum) and recompiled your entire system with something more constrained.
