I keep getting this message and dont know how to fix it; Ive done lots of googling and cant find the solution.
I tried downloading minecraft on this computer for the first time today, and my first problem occurred at the end of the download; it said it had trouble unpacking a file or something and that it was corrupt and i should uninstall and reinstall minecraft(which didnt work), i forget what it was called.. It didnt seem to affect me being able to open the launcher, i just clicked ok and then it was fine.
But then I tried logging in and it said "Please make sure that you are online and that minecraft is not blocked."
Like I said, Ive done research and cant fix it, thats why I had to make this post. Ive made sure it wasnt a firewall or my virus protection, I tried using an old laucher, I even tried getting a torrented version to see if that would solve it.. I dont know what else to do.
Also, I dont know if it matters, but i had to install java today, before i did i got this
Exception: java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect
