I'm been using Nova software with Space-Track downloading for some time. Last several days, it will not download any updates. I've verified my name/password is still active by signing onto Space-Track.org.

Space-Track now requires secure HTTP (SSL) connections to download TLEs. You'll notice that when you visit Space-Track, it now uses "https". They have been advertising this change for several weeks and have finally switched over.

My install of NLSA Nova (version 2.2.0.48) can no longer download from Space-Track.

I'd recommend either downloading from Celestrak, or using a tool that can download from Space-Track: http://www.celestrak.com/SpaceTrack/TLERetriever2Help.asp
