Time and again posting the code does help ;)

Sourceforge is (un)helpfully redirecting your request and Python is
(un)helpfully following. I looks like you can avoid this by using a
URLopener instead of the FancyURLopener implicitly used by urlretrieve():
>>>
URLopener().retrieve("http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wxwindows/mxMSW-2.8.10.zip";,
filename="tmp.zip")
Traceback (most recent call last):
