In Eclipse 3.6.2 on my Windows Vista computer, when I go to 'Install New
Software' and select any update site, I always get a message like this

Unable to read repository at
http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios/content.xml
Permission denied: connect

With Eclipse 3.6.1 I don't have that problem. I thought it might be the
Windows Vista firewall and added an exception for eclipse.exe, but that
didn't help. Also the firewall would usually give me a dialog when it blocks
something.

Thanks, Felix
