Something else to beware of when using FTP. Port 21 may be open so you can request a file. However by default the FTP server will try and open a second data connection back to your machine for transferring the actual file.

All the failures I have had was on HTTP. And the FTP mirrors seem to be working just fine, so in my case at least, this cannot be the problem. Marius
