Long story short - I thought I disabled my anti-virus software adequately. Turns out that I did not. When I carefully shut down each of the services that were running (leaving me temporarily vulnerable to internet evil) the content downloaded successfully!
Next time you are having issues, remember the often stated and repeated mantra of disabling the software you use to protect you from internet evil. I happen to be using AVG's products so your mileage may vary.

My cunprimentos
Steve,
Sorry you had such an issue grabbing the content for Revit MEP.
You should know that we make all of our content available to be downloaded outside of the installer for free if you'd like, including all localized versions.
Go to www.autodesk.com/revitmep-content and you will be able to grab whatever you want.
Cheers,
Kyle
Kyle, thanks, I know about the content and I even had trouble getting them to download because of the anti-virus interference. All is well now that I know how to get around it. It would be nice if downloads from your sites didn't trip up my AV software so it could stay running. I'll have to check to see if I can add those domains as "okay" to the software.
