Client stuck on dowloading.

[DrDeath 2]

I have downloaded the latest client, opened it up,  ' client in downloading' its been saying this for 20 minutes. I have installed in on my laptop which loads up and lets me use the client. 

I have java 8 installed, and have tried javafix but still getting the same issue. any suggestions?

Sounds like you might have a firewall or antivirus that's blocking the connection, try disabling those or add us as an exception

i have enabled it through my windows aitivirus, ~(don't have any other virus protection). 

It wont let me add you as an exception through my firewall, as it doesn't recognise the client as a programme.  I am srill receiving the same error
