setup.exe 2.249.2.5 problems

Hi,
I am trying a fresh install of a freshly downloaded Cygwin 
install (setup.exe version 2.249.2.5) on an WinXP box.

However, when I get to the step after "Select your Internet Connection"
the setup program pops up the "Can't get a list of download sites"
dialog box.

other relevant data:
my username has no spaces in it. and I was able to reproduce this
on 2 different WinXP machines...I checked the FAQ but no luck.
I can load the URL (http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/mirrors.lst)
with IE.

There was a new release yesterday ...so maybe I was the first
to find this buglet.

Here is setup.log.full
(As you can see I tried IE5 and direct settings)
