Hi,
Would appreciate any ideas on what else I might be missing in troubleshooting...
Env:
Windows 7
full internet connectivity via browser and other ports
JRE 7 u21
Windows firewall OFF
antivirus firewall OFF
all OS updates applied
time setting is based off Microsoft OS time synch (correct up to the minute)
removed .minecraft folder and all files including regedit references, rebooted then tried again: same result
I don't think its a java issue since Im not getting partial GET or malformed form
NO errors
You may have a problem with your hosts file, which overrides DNS queries. Please follow the following directions:
Hold down the Windows key, and press R. In the window that appears, enter "%SystemRoot%\System32\drivers\etc", and press Enter. In the window that appears you will see a file, "hosts". Open that file in Notepad, and copy the contents onto Pastebin, and give us the resulting URL.
Yes, Hosts file always has a higher priority. But what IP am I resolving to which domain name, please? And why wouldn't the service be resolvable in DNS? I'm just trying to auth to the standard service.

Would be great if you could show us the contents of the file. If you find any other entries that may have any association with Minecraft, then it will be best to remove them.
I have done a clean remove (registry included) of all minecraft files, rebooted and reinstalled. Are you looking for any thing in particular such as specific logs? All is standard download and config. this is why its so baffling

I wish to see the contents of the hosts file. I have been asking for it for the last 2 posts.
Minecraft does not implant any registry entries at all, just so you know.
contents of hosts file:
# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
First I noticed that java wasn't in my path so set it. Then, I just tried to run minecraft. Same error. I then ran your script with IPv4 and got same error at the command line in the Desktop folder...same thing. Dang. Still looking...

Would you recommend I add an entry in the hosts file?
Thanks
Since you are using Java 7 you could be running into the IPv6 issue which would cause connection timeouts. See http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1272557-no-internet-access-with-latest-version-of-java-jre/#entry15705888
