The good news is that the problem has gone away this morning: I've downloaded unzipped and tested denemo.zip and it is running fine. > My only guess is that maybe they > were downloading when I retarted apache or something.

The checksum thing is of most use to build systems - individual users would just download a second time if they smelt a rat as they would find it quicker than sorting out how to run the checksum program... > > I have been looking at the build system that the lilypond uses and > trying to see what I need to do to have it build denemo.

This is very good news, because we are heading for a tricky situation with LilyPond. The latest 2.24 release no longer creates the lilypond- windows.exe executable, only the lilypond.exe one. This means a console is thrown up every time that LilyPond is run, which besides disconcerting the user makes continuous typesetting unusable, and affects the Multi-line Text dialog and the graphical interface for setting transposition. If you can get control of the generation of LilyPond for Denemo then you can add the -mconsole flag back into LilyPond build which is the thing that controls whether a console is started up.
