Like Uwe, it works for me, so I don't really know what's going wrong for 
you.  I would guess from the message that it is the download that is 
failing, rather than a problem on your system:  you might want to just 
try again, or specify a different repository (via menus, "Repository | 
Change package repository...").  You might also need to specify a proxy, 
if that's how your system is set up.  (You do this in "Connection 
settings" in the change repository dialog.)

Beyond that, I'd echo Uwe's suggestion to ask on a MikTeX list.
