Sorry if I'm digging up a dead topic, but I'm having the same problem.
I'm logged in as administrator, I've installed BlitzMax to Amandas Programs, a folder not in Program Files. I'm running XP on a laptop. I don't have a regular PC, so I don't have the option of installing to a PC and moving my files over to my laptop. The error message I am getting looks like this:
Synchronize Modules
Synchronizing: brl
Failed to connect to www.blitzbasic.com/modserver118
Synchronizing: pub
Failed to connect to www.blitzbasic.com/modserver118
Process complete
