I'm trying to install get_iplayer on my new Windows Home Server box

I'm aware of the previous thread (Windows installer fails to download
atomicparsley) which picks Wininet as the culprit and suggests IE 7 or
8 install as a fix.
However this is a fully patched Windows Home Server 2011 box (based on
Windows Server 2008 R2) which has IE9 on it so is possibly a different
issue.
I couldn't duplicate this on Windows 7 Pro with the same Wininet
version. If it stops with last status code of 301, that suggests that:
a) the redirect is timing out; or more likely b) it's baulking on the
BitBucket certificate for some reason. Perhaps there is some difference
in Home Server configuration responsible, though I don't know offhand
what it might be.
So, I've reversed my previous reversal from that earlier thread and
adjusted the AtomicParsley download URL to avoid redirects. Re-run the
latest installer and it should download the new configuration with the
updated URL.
To the person who suggested a while back that we should abandon the
installer and distribute a VirtualBox appliance instead: I think I'm
beginning to warm to the idea :}
