Just got this message with Qt: "Corrupted Blockchain Detected do you want to rebuild".  Advice please.  TIA

Click "Abort" and upgrade to Bitcoin-Qt 0.8.5 before restarting the app. That sorted the problem for me.


Thanks for the reply and I should have read this thread before posting.

One more question:  When this first occurred, I selected the option to begin re-indexing.  Then decided I'd better research this matter before continuing and aborted the re-index at about 67 weeks remaining.  I have now downloaded and installed 0.8.5.   When I run the new version it is continuing the re-indexing from the abort point.  Any problem, risk with allowing this to continue?  Thank you, I really appreciate your help.
