Unfortunately, your DNS server cache is broken as I'm pretty sure
you're not getting the correct IP address (66.180.237.13) for this
host (files.wordzoo.com).  (Try 'nslookup files.wordzoo.com' to
confirm; the mapping was changed a while back but I've bumped the
version number again to helpful help through I've seen DNS caches stay
out of date for months in some broken implementations).  Other have
successfully downloaded the file.

As a workaround for anyone having this problem, you can do this:

  wget --header 'Host: files.wordzoo.com' http://66.180.237.13/xencd/xencd.iso.gz

The use of a separate download server is because files.wordzoo.com is
a throttling server (thttpd) so I can safely publish URLs of ISOs
without having my bandwidth hammered.
