Eclipse Indigo Market place issue -- permission denied (?)

All,

I am trying to get a plugins from the marketplace and I'm getting quite frustrated. Initially, I was getting exceptions (resolved via another stack overflow post -- thanks), but now I see this: emphasized text

(X) org.eclipse.equinox.p2.core.ProvisionException Unable to read repository at http://download.eclipse.org/releases/indigo/content.xml

I do not understand the 'permission denied' in the error log below. and the error log is showing this:

eclipse.buildId=M20120208-0800 java.version=1.7.0_03 java.vendor=Oracle Corporation BootLoader constants: OS=win32, ARCH=x86_64, WS=win32, NL=en_US Framework arguments: -product org.eclipse.epp.package.cpp.product Command-line arguments: -os win32 -ws win32 -arch x86_64 -product org.eclipse.epp.package.cpp.product

I have this working correctly/well on the same laptop under VMware/linux, but this Windows 7 version is just not being nice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
