I'm getting the following errors when I run the Update Manager.Any ideas why this is?

This means that you've probably set a network proxy.
Check menu System > Preferences > Network Proxy
Also check the output of:

And this?
cat /etc/hostname
cat /etc/hosts
I'm actually trying to figure out just where that "e9c38cce6c" is mentioned :)
OK if the above commands don't return "e9c38cce6c", execute this:
sudo grep -r "e9c38cce6c" /
It will search inside all files about that string. Hopefully it will return a file (or files). It will take some time to finish, so let it run and go for a walk. :)
WARNING! The above command might show some private documents and information. Please send the output of the above command in a PM.

Well.. probably, it basically scans all your files (system and home directories) for that text string.
1) Give it one more day, stop it and see if there's anything in the output.
2) One more thing, do you have a network proxy, a firewall, squid, or a local apt mirror or something connected to apt running? like debtorrent ?
Anything that would interfere between you and the internet?
3) Can you lastly post the output of:

I don't know how to stop the output from sudo grep -r "e9c38cce6c" /
It appears to be stuck in a loop.
I'm not aware of any firewall in use. I am accessing the internet by a wireless router. Would this have any effect?

To stop the loop, just kill it or reboot:
kill `pgrep grep`
1) Try these two and reply with the output:
ping -c5 archive.ubuntu.com
wget --save-headers --verbose http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release.gpg -O -
wget --save-headers --verbose http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/Release.gpg -O -
2) After that, I want you to attempt to download a package for ubuntu 8.04 (hardy heron):
arch=`dpkg --print-architecture`
wget http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/traceroute/traceroute_2.0.12-1_${arch}.deb -O traceroute_2.0.12-1_${arch}.deb
sudo dpkg -i traceroute_2.0.12-1_${arch}.deb
3) If (2) succeeds, execute and post back the output:
sudo tracert archive.ubuntu.com

Two more:
5) Check menu System > Preferences > Network Proxy
Do you have a network proxy set there?
6) post the output of:
ls -l $HOME/.wgetrc
cat /etc/wgetrc
cat /etc/hosts
cat /etc/hostname

###
### Sample Wget initialization file .wgetrc
###
## You can use this file to change the default behaviour of wget or to
## avoid having to type many many command-line options. This file does
## not contain a comprehensive list of commands -- look at the manual
## to find out what you can put into this file.
##
## Wget initialization file can reside in /etc/wgetrc
## (global, for all users) or $HOME/.wgetrc (for a single user).
##
## To use the settings in this file, you will have to uncomment them,
## as well as change them, in most cases, as the values on the
## commented-out lines are the default values (e.g. "off").
##
## Global settings (useful for setting up in /etc/wgetrc).
## Think well before you change them, since they may reduce wget's
## functionality, and make it behave contrary to the documentation:
##
# You can set retrieve quota for beginners by specifying a value
# optionally followed by 'K' (kilobytes) or 'M' (megabytes). The
# default quota is unlimited.
#quota = inf
# You can lower (or raise) the default number of retries when
# downloading a file (default is 20).
#tries = 20
# Lowering the maximum depth of the recursive retrieval is handy to
# prevent newbies from going too "deep" when they unwittingly start
# the recursive retrieval. The default is 5.
#reclevel = 5
# By default Wget uses "passive FTP" transfer where the client
# initiates the data connection to the server rather than the other
# way around. That is required on systems behind NAT where the client
# computer cannot be easily reached from the Internet. However, some
# firewalls software explicitly supports active FTP and in fact has
# problems supporting passive transfer. If you are in such
# environment, use "passive_ftp = off" to revert to active FTP.
#passive_ftp = off
passive_ftp = on
# The "wait" command below makes Wget wait between every connection.
# If, instead, you want Wget to wait only between retries of failed
# downloads, set waitretry to maximum number of seconds to wait (Wget
# will use "linear backoff", waiting 1 second after the first failure
# on a file, 2 seconds after the second failure, etc. up to this max).
waitretry = 10
##
## Local settings (for a user to set in his $HOME/.wgetrc). It is
## *highly* undesirable to put these settings in the global file, since
## they are potentially dangerous to "normal" users.
##
## Even when setting up your own ~/.wgetrc, you should know what you
## are doing before doing so.
##
# Set this to on to use timestamping by default:
#timestamping = off
# It is a good idea to make Wget send your email address in a `From:'
# header with your request (so that server administrators can contact
# you in case of errors). Wget does *not* send `From:' by default.
#header = From: Your Name <username@site.domain>
# You can set up other headers, like Accept-Language. Accept-Language
# is *not* sent by default.
#header = Accept-Language: en
# You can set the default proxies for Wget to use for http and ftp.
# They will override the value in the environment.
#http_proxy = http://proxy.yoyodyne.com:18023/
#ftp_proxy = http://proxy.yoyodyne.com:18023/
# If you do not want to use proxy at all, set this to off.
#use_proxy = on
# You can customize the retrieval outlook. Valid options are default,
# binary, mega and micro.
#dot_style = default
# Setting this to off makes Wget not download /robots.txt. Be sure to
# know *exactly* what /robots.txt is and how it is used before changing
# the default!
#robots = on
# It can be useful to make Wget wait between connections. Set this to
# the number of seconds you want Wget to wait.
#wait = 0
# You can force creating directory structure, even if a single is being
# retrieved, by setting this to on.
#dirstruct = off
# You can turn on recursive retrieving by default (don't do this if
# you are not sure you know what it means) by setting this to on.
#recursive = off
# To always back up file X as X.orig before converting its links (due
# to -k / --convert-links / convert_links = on having been specified),
# set this variable to on:
#backup_converted = off
# To have Wget follow FTP links from HTML files by default, set this
# to on:
#follow_ftp = off
pc@ubuntu:~$ cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 ubuntu
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes

I have removed the Network Proxy settings.Everything now appears to be working normally.
