OpenRA

I have been able to play OpenRA in the past, but with the latest releases, it will install but when I choose to download game content for any of the mods i get the following Error

Error: An exception occurred during a WebClient request.
and it indefintetly stays on this and retries do not work.

Any ideas?
P.S. I hope i have posted this in the correct place

A DNS issue has yet again brought everything *.open-ra.org down http://stats.pingdom.com/syygqlg6525r/788293 including the content mirror redirect. You can still try to grab the stuff you need manually from http://openra.dxnet.ru/ and extract it manually. https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/wiki/Game-Content
