    I'm trying to download some software and it keeps telling me there's an invalid source.
    I googled the that piece of software to see if any one else had the same trouble and a few people say I need to set up a read-me file fir the software.

    How do I do this.

    A "readme" file is sometimes included with the files related to a piece of software. It is purely descriptive, giving basic information on how to run, version history, etc.

    Creating one won't help you to download it.

    Can you name the software? Is it free?
