Yum issue

Hi,

I'm new to Redhat and attempting to use CentOS 4.0 (a RHEL clone). When I try to update my system this happens:

[tt][root@localhost ~]# yum update
Setting up Update Process
Setting up Repos
contrib 100% |=========================| 328 B 00:00
//var/cache/yum/contrib/repomd.xml:1: parser error : Space required after the Public Identifier
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
^
//var/cache/yum/contrib/repomd.xml:1: parser error : SystemLiteral " or ' expected
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
^
//var/cache/yum/contrib/repomd.xml:1: parser error : SYSTEM or PUBLIC, the URI is missing
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
^
Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: contrib
Error importing repomd.xml from contrib: Error: could not parse file //var/cache/yum/contrib/repomd.xml
[/tt]

Any clues?
