Segmentation fault 

As I searched from the Internet, a suggested solution is using yum to instead of up2date. I tried once to yum update from CentOS x86_64 4.6, it could run. But I just tried to download some package not update anthing. Then I found use this method will have a potential compatible problem.
So I tried to reinstall up2date. I ran "yum remove up2date", and download follow rpm from RedHat official web:
up2date-gnome-4.6.2-7.el4_6.1.x86_64.rpm 
up2date-4.7.1-17.el4.x86_64.rpm
I installed them and set the proxy server, then an error encoutered:
******************************************************************
         Error communicating with server. The message was:
         Error Message:
