It has tried to download more, with the same result At the risk of putting a curse on myself...I see that the download server is...well down, and has been for days. But I've been downloading tasks for several days now, within the last half-hour on this computer. If you guys are running Windows is there a chance that your hosts file has been "fixed" again?

It found a collection of entries that contained "hosts", but only two called, simply, "hosts". Both had a dozen or so lines of comments, but nothing else, and neither looked to be placed in directories that seemed applicable to the system here. One in the system32 chain, this system is a 64 bit, the other in an amd directory, this system has an i7. I'm curious about the suggestion actually, what did you mean when you said "fixed"?
