Well, the explanation is in the very text that you are quoting. Either 
you have a network problem, either you need to enable allow_url_fopen in 
your PHP configuration or you need to have curl on the server with the 
PHP curl library. The latter is the better solution, as allow_url_fopen 
may cause some security issues (I'm not sure which actually, but I know 
ISPs are reluctant to enable it).
