I have several major issues at the moment.

First and foremost, I cannot synchronize the wallet past blockheight 72160, no matter what I do.  I've gone so far as to back up and then delete all of my FoxCoin data, perform a fresh install of version 1.6.0 and let it attempt to synchronize.  Always, without fail, the synch stops at 72160 exactly, with a block time of Tue Mar 11 17:44:34 2014

Thinking it might initially have been wallet corruption, I made a new wallet and tried again.  No joy.

To add insult to injury, I tried to bring the keys from my old wallet across using dumpprivkey and then importprivkey in the new wallet.  No matter what, I always got the following message on the import attempt:

 {"code":-5,"message":"Invalid private key"}

I have included in the foxcoin.conf addnode lines for every node listed in the first post, in the infrastructure section on foxcoin.info, and even off of the screenshots I saw on the thread on page 74.  Nothing makes a difference.

I see no way forward, and no way back.

I cannot see it making sense to continue mining a coin that I cannot (at this point) ever spend, transfer, or otherwise interact with.
It looks like a 100% loss of all of the mining effort I have applied up until this point, which seems like the worst-case failure scenario for any coin, ever.

What say you, AnonyFox?
Could you please share the screen capture of your wallet issue? It's strange because my wallet (1.6.0 also) has been syncing just fine yesterday and I was able to transfer coins in/out.
