Start your favorite text editor with root privileges and edit your
sources list, for example:

$ gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Then you'll want to change all instances of http: to ftp: in your
sources file.  Like so:

(change this line)
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com...
(to this line)
deb ftp://archive.ubuntu.com...

Then do a sudo apt-get update to reload your repository listings and try
again.
