Thanx Jerry, it apparently had to do with the mirrors I tried. Working with a dutch mirror now and succeeded in updating everything.
Strange that MCC update icon never gives me the mandrake mirror list for updates. Always get message that server is unreachable or sthing. Anyway, adding a mirror manually in MCC software manager works OK Look and thou shall find

you might want to go and check if there are any vestiges of it left in /var/cache/urpmi/rpms and, if so, delete them and try again. just an idea... i've had rpmdrake fail on a package and when it exited it didn't delete it from there so i could not re-download it.
