Android – Problem installing ADT in Eclipse

adtandroideclipse

I've already installed the SDK and now I need the Eclipse plugin. However, it won't work. It gets to about 25-29% and hangs for a few minutes, then fails and I get this error message:

An error occurred while collecting items to be installed session
context was:(profile=SDKProfile,
phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Collect, operand=,
action=). Unable to read repository at
http://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/plugins/com.android.ide.eclipse.adt_12.0.0.v201106281929-138431.jar.
Read timed out

I'm using Windows Vista and running Eclipse under administrative privileges.

I've solved this applying the fix that frogman suggests here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10103295/106342

I reproduce it here:

Uncheck “Contact all update sites during install to find required software”

The checkbox mentioned there is in the dialog that shows up when you hit "Install new software".
