 * Every thing was working fine on my site.
 * Just few days ago I found a problem searching and installing a plugin. I got 
   following error:
 * **An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or 
   this server’s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the
   support forums.**
 * I googled hours, i found many of same problem thread already active under [http://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting](http://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting).
 * One of the thread suggested me to add these ips into etc/hosts/ file of the root
   hosting account
    72.233.56.139 wordpress.org 72.233.56.138 downloads.wordpress.
   org 72.233.56.139 planet.wordpress.org 74.125.47.147 blogsearch.google.com 72.233.56.139
   api.wordpress.org 72.233.56.142 codex.wordpress.org
 * But in my root directory there is no *hosts* file. Any one please help.
