Zurab,

Copying and pasting your -net install- script into my copy of Stata 9.2
brings up the following error message from Stata (and I do have a
working Internet connection and a functional -findit-):


. net install xml_tab, all replace
from(http://siteresources.worldbank.org/INTPOVRES/Resources)
connection timed out -- see help r(2) for troubleshooting
http://siteresources.worldbank.org/INTPOVRES/Resources/ either
  1)  is not a valid URL, or
  2)  could not be contacted, or
  3)  is not a Stata download site (has no stata.toc file).
