 * Hi,
 * When I try to install plugins by searching from the dashboard I get the following
   error:
 * An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this
   server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support
   forums.
 * Try again
 * This has only started happening today. The only thing I have changed is uninstalling
   some plugins and blocking one IP in my .htaccess file. I have tried allowing 
   the IP again but it still doesn’t work so I guess it isn’t that.
