It seems to try to patch from your local host instead of from a server on the internet.
1) A possibility is that you compiled the client on your own and used a wrong setting at some point
2) you're using the linux/mac client and some error snuck into it during it's compilation
3) you (or something else) played around with the client config and changed the patch URL (eg. you were testing on your own server and forgot to change something back to the original value - might be that config-switching app by someone else here on the forum as well)
That's all the possibilities I'm able to think of
None of the above mate, I downloaded form this site when I returned a few weeks ago, did nothing else to the client :)
