Failed to read information from the Internet

I'm getting this message from the WoW installer:

"Failed to read information from the Internet. Please close all applications and try again."

I'm trying to install on a new iMac 24".

The installer was previously working, but I had a power outage during the installation. I had to start the installation process over, and now I'm just getting this message.

This is usually due to permissions problems, actually. Some basic system maintenance should fix it.

Please use the steps below to repair file permission settings on the hard drive.
1.) Click on the Finder icon in the Dock
2.) Open the Applications folder
3.) Open the Utilities folder
4.) Double click on the Disk Utility application icon
5.) Select the hard drive the game is installed on
6.) Select the First Aid option
7.) Click on the Repair Disk Permissions button

Repair Directory Procedure:
1. (Re) start the computer
2. Right after the computer starts press Cmd (Apple) +s until you get a black screen with white type
3. Let go of the keys when this screen comes up
4. At the cursor please type the following: fsck -fy and press return
5. Please be aware that some of the procedures will look like they are frozen, but are actually taking a long time i.e. checking hierarchy
6. If anything had to be repaired, repeat step 4
7. Once things are repaired type exit and press return
8. Computer will boot into Mac OS
