I've been trying to figure this out for a while.

Operating System and bit type: Windows 7 64-bit
Java version/update and bit type: Version 7 Update 45 64-bit
Launcher version: 1.3.2
Console log, pastebin.com link: http://pastebin.com/33eNgJPR
Description of the Issue:
When attempting to launch the 1.6.4 version of the Direwolf20 pack, I get an error:

"Error extracitng natives: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream"

At which point my launcher closes itself. The pack has not once opened. At first, after research, I figured it was my Java so I updated to the newest 64-bit Java, deleted the modpack, and redownloaded. This seems to not have changed the error at all.

The Direwolf20 1.5.2 modpack, the only other one I actually play, runs perfectly fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I already did everything in the troubleshooting guide. It's pretty much my first steps anytime FTB has trouble for me. As for the second link, I've read that before and I would love to know what you want me to read in there. Did I miss something? I have my pastebin in my original post, and there is no crash log of any kind being generated.

The zlib thingamajingy is happening because the download messed up, so it's reaching the end of the zip file, and it's not expecting the end so soon (because it's having so much fun unzipping the file, and doesn't want to stop) D: You can try force-updating or deleting the file manually. If it breaks again, then you can try disabling your av while it's downloading, if you have one.
