I wonder if it's just too many hops?

It is. There are 33 hops to www.ldraw.org (see below).

An ugly fix could be to set up your browser to use an HTTP
proxy placed slightly closer to www.ldraw.org than your own
machine.

I have run a tracert from my machine here and there are 32 hops to
www.ldraw.org, but I can pull the pages up fine. I don't have my browser
using a proxy, so I don't think the problem is to do with having 33 hops.
