Do you have a firewall that's preventing access? Also try disabling the proxy server if you don't need it to access the net.

Those symptoms are Firewall blocking,.. IF you are using the same PC to post here.
Since the Index page is right here at MR, you could download the PI and use Preferences: Plugins: to manually install the PI Zip file (leave it zipped). The button is at the bottom
