I've been using get_iplayer successfully to download radio programmes as .aac files. It stopped working last week and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software but now it doesn't work at all. I get the message:

Looking at the mailing list, I realise there may be a solution to the original problem but I can't even get that far at the moment. It's probably due to me being dim but I'd be grateful for any help.
