Probably a victim of the recent server slowness...

The problem starts right after that network error message appears, my network is working fine only this dialog suffers from it.

Even if the online server is slow or even stopped, the filter of "Installed" should continue to work offline.

I think the problem is that when any "Get New..." dialog appears, it starts with everything as filter so it will fetch all available items online, but if, before the query returns results, user selects fast "Installed" filter (which is a local operation with no need to internet) the previous fetch continues to execute, and if any network error pop up (like timeout) then you will start to see non installed items with "Installed" filter.
I think selecting "Installed" filter should cancel any not finished online fetch. Because only "Everything" and "Updateable" filters need internet to work.
