Shooting in the dark here without more detail, but did you download the blockchain that's posted in the OP?

I did not, I just grabbed the wallet. I will get it downloaded and see if that solves the issues, thanks!

We've hardforked the blockchain to keep it alive, and as a result it doesn't sync up past block 3 on it's own. I've identified the reason this happens and I've found some code from another coin that did a similar hard fork. We are working on getting the wallet back to 100% autonomous syncing, and then possibly integrating another future hard fork to return the specs close to the way they were originally.

Once we iron out the lingering bugs and release the next version it would be a good time to re-launch with a fresh thread to get people noticing that we're out of the woods. I'll check to see what we can do about cryptocointalk - there might be a thread or something already.

at least having the blockchain there for download makes it nice and fast for people, is there a way to include it in the wallet zip? so it's just one download?

I'm up to 1400 TECH now... I'm hoping for a decent night of tips so I can buy another few K before price jumps, really not that many coins on the sell wall so I'm hope'n tonights a good night for me

Good suggestion! Windows and Mac wallets are now both available on github in a package containing the blockchain, in addition to the original, seperate packages.

Out of curiosity, wouldn't a built in checkpoint be a proper solution?

I think a checkpoint will help where it gets stuck at block 5000 and you have to close and open the wallet to get it past that point, but it is a more basic check for valid blocks that is failing and will be solved by adding if statements to change the specifications as the chain does.
