Try a mirror site that's different to all sites? Sounds a bit Zen. What is
the mirror site that is different from all mirror sites?
Sounds like a firewall problem. Make sure setup.exe is granted internet
access. If you use a proxy for browsing the web, make sure you select "Use IE5
settings" on the "Select your internet connection" page, or select "Use
HTTP/FTP proxy" and enter the proxy details directly. If that still doesn't
help, do a more basic test: check if you can get to the mirror site in your
browser and find setup.ini there.
cheers,
