Seems that they doesn't have full mirror archives... isn't it?

Here from Spain (outside rediris) I like to use
ftp.doc.ic.ac.uk/pub/Mirrors/ftp.debian.org wich is great for me, maybe no
for you (what country is .il?)

This is a quick search of mirrors that have ftp.debian.org with archie:

Host ftp.ms.mff.cuni.cz    (195.113.19.66)
    Location: /MIRRORS

Host ftp.cosy.sbg.ac.at    (141.201.2.108)
    Location: /ftp/pub/mirror

Host ftp.task.gda.pl    (153.19.253.204)
    Location: /mirror

Host ftp.flashnet.it    (194.247.160.5)
    Location: /pub


Try also with this, use the ping command it may be quite informative, eg:

ping somewhere.com

<to end type Control and C)

and compare the average from different sites...

> BTW: What is the contrib directory?

I think that are packages from people that are not "debian developpers"
and are not "supported".... or maybe I'm wrong...

I hope this helps,

regards,
