The same thing sometimes happen with me. When happen , the solution give by "ginkhao said on 2006-11-28:" work to me too.

I think there is others bugs had same characteriscs like
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bug/24061

Could implement a routine in apt-get to detect badsig errors and try automatically download again with "apt-get update -o Acquire::http::No-Cache=True" characteriscs in a "fail mode" for that mirrors with badsigs ?
