So yeah...
It opened up the first time but after updating it wouldn't connect directly anymore (I only tried multiplayer later). It works for the "play offline" option on single player and I can play online if I go to the website (just now learned that) but the client itself seems to be locking me out. None of the proposed fixes (that I am capable of enacting with my limited computer experiences) have done anything to change this problem. I have a new computer with everything updated and am running windows 7. I tried reinstallintg everything I could think of short of windows itself and turning off security programs did nothing either.

And every time I try to go onto multiplayer I get the same error minus the text messages but including altered text:
java.net.SocketException: Permission denied: connect

Any clue if/when this is going to be fixed?
