It seems wiki.lyx.org is down right now. I am trying to download some
templates from there to compose my Curriculum Vitae. Can somebody send
me a CV template, if you happen to have some on your computer?

You already have it on your computer:
Copy the file "cv.cls" you find in a subfolder of LyX's install directory somewhere to MiKTeX's instal folder and then start the program "MiKTeX Options" and refresh there the filename database. Then reconfigure LyX. (When you have installed LyX on Windows using this installer:
http://developer.berlios.de/projects/lyxwininstall/
this is should be done automatically.)

When you are on Linux use texhash to refresh LaTeX's filename database.

Besides LyX's cv-class there are much better cv-classes available:

- "europecv" (following exactly the guidelines given by the European Union,
              required for some job applies in the EU)
  example:
  
ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/europecv/templates/cv_template_en.pdf
- "moderncv" (in my opinion the best looking CV)
  example:
  
ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv/examples/jdoe_casual.pdf
- "ecv"
  example:
  
ftp://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/ecv/template/CV-template_en.pdf
