The plug site was moved quickly to one of Brian's servers in Texas.

Well, I am not sure he moved them over yet. There are a great many mirrors
about?

Yes, it was a dns issue.
You perhaps have regular issues with your dns using Qwest dialup?
However, I don't believe that they allow DNS to traverse their network (or
they didn't). You had to use their DNS servers?
To quickly determine, add:
nameserver 8.8.8.8
at the top of the file /etc/resolv.conf
Then verify you can still resolve names?
# ping apple.com
If you get an error, you HAVE to use Qwest DSL's dns servers (which are not
rated well).

There is probably a way that you don't need to access the archives? Have
you tried to access a mirror via google?
