Launchbox Time Out while fetching images

Just as the title says, my Launchbox can only fetch half or 50% of the game images. It doesn't matter the platform. Am I the only one facing this issue right now? Is Emu Movies having some problems?

The latest beta increases the timeout period on downloads and may help with this issue. If you haven't already I'd go in Tools > Options and check into beta updates and then update to the latest via the Help > Check for Updates to grab the beta update.

I can't seem to download the newest Update too. It's stuck on... nothing. May I have a virus? But I can download big files with the web browser at a high speed, I can also update Steam games. What could it be?

You're still there, admin? Or is there a problem with Launchbox image deposit or something? I'm rolling back to the previous Launchbox version but... it seems I have the same problem...

I actually think it may be a problem with Launchbox servers. I can't fetch images for the games and I can't download the latest version either. I uninstalled Launchbox, deleted everything from it save some backup files, and it's still the same. Can you or other users confirm this issue? Or is there a specific fix for my problem?

It's more likely that you have a firewall blocking traffic for some reason, or there is a down server somewhere in the line from your computer to our server. I haven't heard of any reports of some one being unable to grab the update, or timing out near as often as you are saying you are.

Well, as long as this issue is limited to Launchbox, I'm not complaining. I thought it was a virus, I ran Esset and my system is fine, and I have a decent speed while downloading things. I have downloaded game images and screenshots from other sites, so it's not really a problem for me.

Still, I'm puzzled as why this happens. I've added Launchbox to my Firewall exceptions to no avail. And it seems everything that requires Launchbox to connect to it's servers or whatever, it gets the "time out" error. Got any ideas?
