Are you behind a firewall or proxy that would be blocking .zip files? lein search first makes sure it has an updated index from those repositories, and if not tries to download and unzip those index files:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/.index/nexus-maven-repository-index.zip http://clojars.org/repo/.index/nexus-maven-repository-index.zip Can you download those files in a browser?
