Kobo firmware update failing

I'm trying to dowload and install the new firmware, but am getting this error via Calibre:

HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "calibre/gui2/device.py", line 104, in run
File "calibre_plugins.koboutilities.jobs", line 123, in do_check_firmware_update
resp = urlopen(update_data["UpgradeURL"])
File "urllib/request.py", line 216, in urlopen
File "urllib/request.py", line 525, in open
File "urllib/request.py", line 634, in http_response
File "urllib/request.py", line 563, in error
File "urllib/request.py", line 496, in _call_chain
File "urllib/request.py", line 643, in http_error_default
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

Not sure if this a Kobo or a Calibre issue...

Please do not double post. See my reply to you in the Kobo forum.

And perhaps you could go the trouble of searching before posting? This issue was mentioned several times in the [GUI Plugin] Kobo Utilities including error message identical to what you posted other than some language changes in the headers and in a couple of other threads.

If you use Google, try a search for HTTP Error 403: Forbidden site:mobileread.com just for the fun of it.
