Then something is really really wrong with both your forward and reverse
DNS.
Please fix your DNS before proceeding any further. PING time for yahoo
should be no more than 200ms:

Read this thread all the way through to the end. It contains
instructions how to diagnose the problem and also the most common reason
for the cause (DNS problems with verifying the signature on the EXE and
DLLs):
http://www.cvsnt.org/pipermail/cvsnt/2008-October/031355.html
At least one other person was not able to correctly configure their DNS
to get this to operate and we are working on a further update for people
thus affected.
