Hi all,

I've recently installed MiKTeX 2.9 including Texworks as editor (see  
http://miktex.org/2.9/setup, basic 64 bit)
I'm having some problems at downloading the missing packages.
Indeed, despite I had selected the option "installing missing packages  
on the fly" in my settings, the system is not able to find them.
Apparently there is a connection issue since when I try to use both  
the default package repository  
(http://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ctan.org/tex/systems/win32/miktex/tm/packag) and  
others links the system lets me choose (I tried the UK's ones first,  
should I choose anyone else in particular according to you?)  I get  
the following error types:

1) The operation could not be completed for the following reason:
Windows API error 5: Denied Access

OR

2) A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not  
properly respond after a period of time, or established connection  
failed because connected host has failed to respond.

The same error occurs when I try to load the packages from Package manager.

Any suggestions about that?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Antonio
