in the instructions at http://grass.osgeo.org/grass62/binary/mswindows/
you will see setup.ini at the top of that page, and it says:

"At step #3 use http://grass.ibiblio.org/grass62/binary/mswindows/
(or a local mirror) instead of http://geni.ath.cx/grass.&quot;

good luck,

Consider to use the new OSGeo4W installer instead:
