A general notice to all those suffering from failures to update while using the launcher. Are you using AVG? If so, consider finding some better anti-virus software. If you refuse to then at least make sure it isn't blocking the launcher. AVG and some other anti virus programs will auto lock out any application it doesn't recognize that makes outbound connections. It'll do this by default without bothering to let you know. This can leave you scratching your head and thinking the launcher is broken.
PLEASE CHECK TO MAKE SURE YOUR ANTI-VIRUS ISN'T BLOCKING TECHNIC FROM CONNECTING TO MOJANG.
If it can't do that, then it cant download minecraft from their servers, and then the mods from ours. That means your update will fail and you'll come in here and post a thread that it's not working and we'll have no idea what to do and spend hours checking and testing. That ultimately means it will take longer for more updates in general and no one wants that. Do everyone a solid and try as many things as you can think of to get it working before giving up. It could be as simple as AVG.
