shubhad thanks man for your suggestion worked for me as i was getting a "msxml3.dll error '800c0008' The download of the specified resource has failed." error message andit got resolved just by changng the version of the XML i was using.
 Set xml = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")

Hi,
  Just a little more info on this thread. I was also using xml object created through Microsoft.XMLHTTP. Therefore getting the same error.
It was working fine for me but as I changed by date to one month back I started getting error as "unable to download the file".
But as mentioned in the last post using Microsoft.ServerXMLHTTP will solve the problem i changed it. After that i got the date for ssl has expired.When I changed the system date time to the current date the code started working .
Hope this reply helps

Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP") fixed it for me too, thank you very much.

Sorry if i shouldn't have ressed the thread, just wanted to say thanks, and in case someone else has the problem, maybe it can be fixed the same way.
