Updating from 1.40X.061 to 1.40X.062 Fails

from Stardock Forums
I've tried updating as specified in the title, but it fails. I've pasted the end of the log below. I've tried both servers available (US-1 and US-2). Any ideas?

First, go to Tools->Settings and choose the Internet tab. Hit the Refresh XML button.  When it's done, hit OK and then check for application updates.  Also, do a search for .sdc files (should be somewhere like C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Temp\sdcentral) and remove those as SDC has been having trouble with resuming downloads lately.

Refreshing the XML data did the trick. The only .sdc files I found were in C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\BACKUP. I'm pretty sure those are my backup files since I've got "archive on update" or somesuch flag set. I left them alone and refreshed the version info. Then the update claimed it was successful. Thanks a lot CariElf!
