Hey guys! I posted a thread with the issue I was having about a week ago. Here was the error I was getting when trying to connect to my server, I also had a gray screen at the launcher and couldn't connect to any other servers.

Note: every time I try to reconnect to the server it said that my port was different everytime [/IP:?????]

I connect through a private network manager, Hamachi. I have tried enabling Java through Firewall, turning off my security client, restarting Minecraft, redownloading Minecraft, I have even tried pinging to session.minecraft.net

When I ping to session.minecraft.net here's what I get...



C:\Users\Robert>ping session.minecraft.net

I was updated to Java 7. I don't know what it is about that but when I uninstalled Java 7 and reverted back to Java 6 everything was working again!! If you want to install Java 6 then here's the link http://www.downloadcrew.com/article/27228-java_6_64-bit to uninstall Java 7 go to Start Menu>Control Panel>Programs and features>and uninstall all of java and it's updates BEFORE installing the new Java 6.

Hope I helped!
