I think it's a problem with tug.ctan.org:  I frequently get stuck when 
downloading from there.  What I used to do is stop the download manually with 
a control-C and have it donwload from another mirror site.  I finally got 
annoyed with it and set my default CTAN mirror to a different site.

I do in fact have lyx installed and running, by the way, and it seems to work 
OK.
