Your lobby must be able to access a certain file on this website in order to obtain the server IP. Have you made any changes to your firewall lately?

Well, the file is there and everyone seems to be able to access it but you...

Things to try:

Delete your lobby files, redownload LobbyUpdate.exe
Reinstall .NET Framework
Clear your internet cache/temporary files

It's in your internet options somewhere, depending on your browser.

Google it. To your Google search, add the name of whatever browser you use.

If there's a router in your house try the lobby on a different computer

ive tried to install the ee-lobby on another user account on the same computer i got this message: access to the path 'Global\net cir networking' is denied

[10010 1111 10]

i got this message: access to the path 'Global\net cir networking' is denied

This would likely indicate a problem with, or lack of the latest version of, .NET Make sure you have the latest version of .Net Framework, it can be downloaded at:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/ ... etfx35.exe

access to the path 'Global\net clr networking' is denied

That error is unrelated - it has something to do with Windows user account permissions and .NET, nothing specific to the lobby.

Anyway, I really can't pinpoint the problem if the lobby simply "freezes" on the obtaining server IP portion. This just means that the application can't download the information from the file, so something on your end is preventing it from happening.

I asked you to try it on a different machine because if it works on another one, then we then know it's a problem specific to your computer and not with your router or ISP.

As of right now, I am not aware of an error on my part that causes this problem. USOLA has the same problem and has either A) solved it and not told us how he did it or B) stopped seeking support from us for now.

From now on, you need to USE PUNCTUATION if you wish to seek support from us. im not going to halp teh ppl who decide to tlk like this in big huge runon sentenencences with shit speelling HELP and r like omg wtf shit donet work so plz fix it kk bye help :*****( If you want support, act like it.

You also need to provide us with some detailed information. Have you changed anything recently on your computer that might have started this problem? Also go through some of the other shit that I've asked USOLA in this topic. I don't feel like repeating it...
