upgrade-manager from 7.10 to 8.04

[Yuelin Li]

My update-manger seems to get stuck on 'Fetching file 1410 or 1436'.
Running 'netstat -tn' suggests that my desktop is stuck trying to
connect to servers in the canonical.com domain.

Is anyone else having the same problem?  If not, then perhaps it has
something to do with my machine being behind a corporate firewall?  If
so, I suppose I have to upgrade from a CD?

Yuelin.
