This may be caused by an internet proxy. I'm going to try downloading the ISO and placing it in the wubi folder. Will update after.

[Steven Kaufer (skaufer)]

It was definitely caused by the proxy. Windows had a static ip address. When I changed it to DHCP and authenticated with the proxy the ubuntu installation was successful.
