I've been trying to download some games in my gog queue all day, but my gog downloader fails to connect. It just says "The application is offline or it can't connect to gog.com servers." I tried uninstalling it, updating AIR, reinstalling it, but I get the same error message.
I also noticed that I can't click on the name or password fields to change the values. I see the text boxes, I click on them, but nothing happens.

Anyone else having/had similar problems? Otherwise my internet connectivity seems to be fine.

I only tend to download using the browser... I'm not even sure I have the downloader installed.

Will give it a try later.

Nope, no problems with it at all, but then again, I've almost never had problems with it.

EDIT - And it still works after the unexpected Adobe Air update.

i think it's because a new version is comming in the next days...so maybe the old one can not conect anymore

yeah... the thing is, it doesn't even appear to be *trying* to connect. It just pops up the error message instantly.
I'd like to download a 2 gig file (unreal 2004 te), but i'm on a slow connection and it will definitely take more than one day.

Are you connecting through a proxy server or personal firewall that could be preventing you from logging on?

I've noticed the automatic update sometimes mess it up. Try a reboot. That's the easy solution I use.

It's not my fault windows refuse to fucking close applications that have crashed or run into a conflict or something. :/

Edit: That's a funny video. :)

Hehe, I didn't mean to imply you did anything wrong. There's a reason it's the first suggestion from IT support. I just thought that video of The IT Crowd fitted neatly into the discussion there. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. Seasons 1-4 are out on DVD.

I got Windows Rage so I over reacted. Sorry about that.

The IT Crowd reminds me of Nick Burns: Your Company's Computer Guy which is a bit dated now but still gold. :)

Edit: That was a really shitty video. I'll try to find one with better quality.
No luck yet. Seems like Youtube have purged it or I suddenly suck at searching.
