One fast method is to run VirtualDub then drag the file onto the VirtualDub window.
Click 'Video' 'Direct Stream Copy' then 'File' 'Save as AVI' - give the file a new name.
VirtualDub can often correct errors in files and make them acceptable.
Selecting 'Direct Stream Copy', ensures that no re-compression takes place.

K when i dragged in the working films i got:-

could'nt locate decrompressor for format 'DX50'
vitualdub requires a video for windows
(VFW) compatible codec to decompress video
DirectShow codecs, such as those used by windows media player, are not suitable.

For the ones that don't work i get:-
could'nt locate decrompressor for format 'XVID'
vitualdub requires a video for windows
(VFW) compatible codec to decompress video
DirectShow codecs, such as those used by windows media player, are not suitable.

If you wish you can install the individual codecs instead of a large codec pack.
These can be un-installed if required.

XviD codec.

Free DivX codec
http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/download/

Lame MP3 codec
Download, then right click on 'LameACM.inf' file and Install
