Hey all. Everything was great until RIGHT NOW. when I can't seem to get access to ca.archive.ubuntu.com for my software installs. Not quite sure what to do about this, It was working fine till today and I haven't changed a thing. Can someone shed some light? are they changing things around or something? It just times out, and I've loaded several web pages and the internet connection is fine.....help! I like to keep things updated and get new software....

I've tried apt-get update and it times out when it gets to that repo.

Here's the error code:
