Yes, I do.

After the client appeared to be running consistently I enable the "Update all new resources at once" option. The client then appeared to hang at the checking firewall window as in my second screenshot. Given the option previously enabled and the activity on the modem I assumed it was downloading the resources at the checking firewall window. After the activity on my modem died down I once again killed the process and started the client again. The client now functions as before the update.

We are checking this option functionality. Meanwhile, try not using it.

Out of curiosity I unchecked the "Update all new resources at once" option in my old client to see if it would then connect. It still hangs at a gray box where the checking firewall window should be as in my first screenshot.

Oks, i unchecked it.
Still same, only font on "Checking firewall" screen is bit bold and maybe little different style, mouse turns into colorful square and nothing happens.

I have this problem frequently now and I do not use the "download all resources" option. When it gets stuck, it looks like nikolaos' second screenshot, with the black "Checking firewall" box.

I just have to keep killing the process and trying again, it eventually works for me that way...

Oh, and I have reinstalled twice now to see if that was the problem, but no joy.

Surak, what happened with this? Does this option work (download at once) as it should, or its still under checking?

I too have this problem with download all resources at once...

im running both ubuntu 8.04 and 8.1
nvidia card .. but it shows as an ati on the start screen

same problem on both .. it hangs on the little black checking firewall ... do i have to install one so it can find it .. or is somebody going to finally address the coding problem ? ( over 18 months now )

i also occasionally get the white screen where the little robot should be on the start movie

i have not checked the install all at once option

i have unchecked the full screen mode .. so i can unlock the white screen problem without rebooting

does anyone look at these problems .. ?
does anyone have any idea what part of the code was changed to create the problem .. ?
