Minecraft Forums

So I'm running minecraft 1.7.10 and I recently had to factory reset my computer. I was able to play before the reset but not after. When trying to use direct connect with mojang I get the above error message. It's been happening for two weeks now, so I don't think it will fix itself. I uninstalled java today and updated to the latest version. I never had internet connection problems with minecraft before. I redownloaded minecraft.exe. I have windows 8.1 and i disabled the windows firewall and kaspersky on my computer, and that also didn't work. Everything seems to load fine and I only get the error message when trying to do direct connect in multiplayer. Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix it?
