This sounds like a antivirus issue. Some AV's "assume" that you are downloading something nasty, and without giving you a warning, blocks the programs progress.

Try disabling the antivirus or uninstalling it.

You could also tell the antivirus to allow techniclauncher, I dont remember how to do that, google might help.
