Hi,

Check your proxy settings? If so you might need to configure HTTP_PROXY. 
Else try downloading from git.

For features of Radiant visit www.railspassion.com/rails/cms/radiant/

Thanks Prasanna for the reply.The sad news is that I don't know how to 
check my proxy settings(I could google it but I wouldn't know what or 
what not to look for in the settings !).If you could be a little more 
detailed about how I should go about it then it would be so much better 
for me. Thanking you again. Looking for a swift reply.
