Comment 71 for bug 24234

I am a newbie so please be patience with me I keep having the same problem in Ubuntu 9.10 it fails to get the updates but I noticed i keeps going to a tw website.
Look at this ;
 Failed to fetch http://tw.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/Release.gpg Could not connect to tw.archive.ubuntu.com:80 (140.112.8.139), connection timed out
  W: Failed to fetch http://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/Release

W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
My system is in English I suspect this is a Taiwan connection. What can I do?
