No. Has minecraft ever worked for you? You need to connect once to get minecraft to download all the files it needs into the .minecraft folder. If you get "cannot connect to minecraft" for more than a few hours (and I haven't seen any long downtimes lately), then try:
1. download a fresh copy of minecraft.exe from minecraft.net/download and retry
2. launch minecraft, click options and click force update, click Done, enter username and password as usual and click login
3. if step 2 does not help, uninstall all Java then reinstall only one Java 6 and retry (should not affect this, but best to be clean)
4. if step 3 does not help, download the minecraft.jar version from minecraft.net/download and use the suggested batch command line there (ignore the Linux bit, it will work on all systems)
5. if step 4 does not help look at any restrictions imposed by your internet firewall and antivirus software.

Thank you for all the help, but it still isn't working.

Yes that is very normal. Because you NEED PREMIUM ACCOUNT TO DOWNLOAD THIS GAME. Looks like you were running a cracked or offline copy, and are now caught in the act. If your actually enjoying the game, buy it.
