This fixed my issue:
The latest update to the creative packager will not recognize Windows proxy settings correctly.
it will not resolve the proxy from the IE AutoConfguration script file.
Check your proxy settings in IE
.........Connections --> Lan Settings tab
I had to manually input the proxy, make sure the AutoDetect and USE Automatic script are UNCHECKED
Select Manual and put in your proxy.
I need to keep it setup this way while I build my package
