I'm having slight problems with this mirror. I get the impression that 
there is something that is limiting the rate of HTTP connections:

$ perl checkcentosmirror_v4.pl http://mirror.plusserver.com/centos/

On subsequent tries the files that fail to download are different. 
Perhaps there's some firewall trying to limit the access? Please note 
that when CentOS systems download updates from your mirror, those 
systems may end up getting such download errors as well.
