* Main Site: http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates  (Recommended)
    * Helios Site: http://download.eclipse.org/releases/helios

The second gives me some xml error:
<Error><Code>AccessDenied</Code><Message>Access Denied</Message><RequestId>02A65ECCD4782A9F</RequestId><HostId>fCbWEmg7FPR74KGGP30bE3bqoFevweFFvFCExaPJIBBtX5weDCEQanOzUK7J4SpW</HostId></Error>

The first takes me to a blank page:

		if (document.implementation && document.implementation.createDocument) {
			xmlFile = document.implementation.createDocument("", "", null);
			stylesheet = document.implementation.createDocument("", "", null);
			if (xmlFile.load){
				xmlFile.load("site.xml");

Comment 1 Matthias Sohn CLA 2010-07-13 12:34:30 EDT 
You probably pointed your browser at these URLs. Actually both URLs point to p2 repository meant for installing or updating Eclipse software.

Try the following:
- start Eclipse
- Follow menu path "Help > Install New Software"

- if you start from Eclipse Helios installation you may skip the following two steps
- click "Add"
- copy the URL and set a display name for this URL

- if you are behind a firewall you need to setup the HTTP proxy, go to Window > Preferences > General > Network Connections and enter your HTTP proxy

- then select the repository from the drop down list "Work with"
- navigate to the egit feature
- select it and click through the wizard to install it
