Sorry, that was directed to lupjohn, who said that he got an unauthorized access error from the server. (There is no index.html file for that folder so if you click on the link you get a 403 Forbidden error.) For example, if you go to team254.bcp.org/update_site/site.xml you will not get a forbidden error. This is the file Eclipse looks at when searching for plug-ins.

I am actually not sure if this can be fixed. Eclipse stores a lot of information specific to compiler settings, etc. in each project (Check your .settings directory.) Sorry.

Would you mind trying this again? (I have deleted an old version of the plug-in from the update site. I am not sure if it makes a difference.)

1. Delete any current plug-ins or features (in the eclipse/features folder)
that are begin with org.eclipse.cdt.mcc18
2. Install the plug-in from the update site.
3. When prompted as to whether to restart, first say no.
4. Then close eclipse.
5. then restart eclipse with the option -clean.

For those interested, the reasons I'm making you do the hard work of restarting eclipse by yourself is that the plug-in and feature might be so small that eclipse interrupts the downloading process when it asks you to restart, because it thinks that it is already done downloading. When it restarts it interrupts the downloading process, and corrupts the plug-in.
