Client Problem with Windows 7

[TerryT]

This problem has just come up recently. I am able to open the client to the update software page. After clicking the client, it just dies without opening up the login client

Here is the debug information

Getting ServerStatus Done

Ahoi,

the Client can't connect to the Server. I guess, the Serverstatus lamp in the Startingscreen is yellow or red.

Propably there is a firewall aktiv, whitch blocks the port 7670, whitch is needed to connect.

It can get through the windows firewall.  The server status is green, I was able to download the update when I uninstalled and reinstalled the software.  I am not sure why it wont connect to the server.

Maybe, there is another firewall after Windows. e.g. in your router, the network of your scool, or from your provider, ...
