are there any problems for the new users? I cannot find anything, but yesterday I downloaded a new (seemingly latest) wallet (version v0.8.6.1-beta) on Windows 7 and it does not download past block 33582.

I also downloaded the source code and compiled daemon on Linux - same thing.

I've tried deleting data and restarting - it stick again on the same block.

Apart from this block number being in a fork abandoned during 2013 June attack, I have not found any other significance of this number. Could I be landing on the wrong fork?

I'm running a number of other coin daemons and feathercoin is the only with this kind of problem.
