[plt-scheme] Re: bug installing PLAI language in 4.1.5?

I just tried to install the PLAI package on PLaneT from the following
URL:

http://planet.plt-scheme.org/display.ss?package=plai.plt&owner=plai

using the following command:

(require (planet plai/plai:1:1))

However, I encountered the following error message:

require: PLaneT could not download the requested package: tcp-connect:
connection to planet.plt-scheme.org, port 80 failed (at step 4:
?\?P?b?g??O??????????????????s?????????????B; errno=10038) in: (planet
plai/plai:1:1)

When I unblocked access to port 80 for TCP/IP packages in Control
Panel, restarted DrScheme (it repeated the same error message until I
did this), and tried to run the command again, this time I ran into
the following error message:

require: PLaneT could not download the requested package: tcp-write:
error writing (Unknown error; errno=10038) in: (planet plai/plai:1:1)

Do you have a download site where I can manually download the file and
then install it from the local hard disk?
