Trouble contacting terraserver...?
There's a new beta out that changes the server used to download topo maps from 'terraserver-usa.com' to 'msrmaps.com'.
Right now old versions of TF cannot download topo and B/W aerials.
Supposedly they were going to keep forwarding requests from terraserver-usa.com to msrmaps.com indefinitely. But as of today that does not seem to be the case. Thus the new version.
TopoWMS:
You can fix your TopoWMS by going to the CustomWMS server dialog and changing the server from "terraserver-usa.com" to "msrmaps.com" .
If all you use is TopoWMS, the change should be all you need.
Beta is available here:

For all registered users. We will probably release v3.972 in full and demo versions later today.

Looks like the forward from terraserver to msrmaps is now active again. Still best to leave it as msrmaps for best reliability.
So, no immediate need to update to v3.972, as long as topo and B/W aerials are working for you.

As of today, it looks like terraserver-usa is again not responding, while msrmaps.com is. So, upgrade to 3.972 to restore topo map access.
