Owen:

You don't say which repository you're having difficulty reaching.
However, I suspect it's the Hoary Backports as that's where most of the
problems seem to crop up.  Check the backports page:
http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/  and change to a different mirror in
/etc/apt/sources.list

HTH,
Ed
