Problem downloading "iTunes LP" from store.

I just purchased "AC/DC - Let There Be Rock" from the iTunes store and downloaded all of the album tracks to my Windows 7 PC with no problem, but then received the following error message when it tried to download the actual "iTunes LP" part.

I think this is the first album I have bought from the store that has the "iTunes LP" badge. I have tried restarting iTunes and the same error -5000 comes up automatically every time. Everything else seems to be working OK. Any ideas? Thanks

Windows 7

Thanks so much. The article reminded me to check that my security software wasn't blocking access. I am using Malwarebytes Premium and I temporarily disabled it and retried the download of the LP, and it worked! It didn't occur to me before that this could be a problem, as Malwarebytes usually shows a pop-up window whenever it blocks anything, but that didn't happen in this case. I turned Malwarebytes back on after the download to check that the LP would still play and it was fine. Although it's a bit of a pain having to disable this temporarily every time I want to download an iTunes LP, at least I can always turn it back on after the initial download.
