Auto Update Always Fails for Me

[VarekRaith]

Every time I've tried the auto update, it fails to contact the server. I allow it pass the firewall. I've tried it with the firewall disabled. No go. Not a huge issue, as I can manually download patches. Should I be fowarding a specific port, or is this on my end? Or is the server just busy?

Not sure what the problem would be if you've unblocked it in your firewall. I'll ask around and see if anyone has any other suggestions, but as far as I know it's a pretty straightforward FTP connection that it uses as long as the app itself is unblocked.

Update.

Downloading: Update information from server #1 Creating handle.

It seems to get stuck here. If I click the update box, it crashes out with a "Not responding" message. I'm behind a router, it that helps...

Otherwise, I'm at a loss.
