Was fine until a few days ago. Tried to reinstall...did no good. Thanks!!
Be sure you are working with the latest wallet edition. If you are and you still have the problem, close your wallet, and consider this: You could delete and redownload the entire blockchain fresh. You do this by deleting all but wallet.dat from the dat files in the %appdata%\PotCoin folder. DO NOT DELETE WALLET.DAT, BUT MAKE A BACKUP OF IT WHILE YOU'RE IN THE FOLDER, AND KEEP IT SAFE SOMEWHERE. You enter the %appdata%\PotCoin in the start-up search box where you enter run commands. Open subfolders to remove dat files there as well. When you are done deleting these dat files from %appdata%\PotCoin close all these folders as well. Then when you go to restart your wallet it will say something like "the blockchain is corrupt would you like to redownload it". Say yes. The blockchain will start redownloading from day one. This could take a long time, but usually solves your problem.

Re: [ANN] Catcoin - NEW THREAD - FORK INCOMING AT BLOCK 21346 - Scrypt MEOW!
I discovered if I close my wallet, and start it up again, the problem returns. The wallet stalls endlessly and will not sync. I can keep up using the delete and rebuild method, but there is a bug in the wallet system that would be nice to be fixed. Developers please take note. Thanks.
I think you're fine, it's just an hour behind because no block has been found since, which is a problem, but not with the wallet. If you want to make sure, check http://catchain.info/chain/Catcoin and see if your wallet has the same block. It shows 2 hours behind for me too, which is true, we're not even close to 10 minute blocks.
You were correct. Thanks.

My wallet has been like this for daysss. Any idea what is wrong? I copied the conf. file to roaming, so now it is in both places, right? Thanks for the help.
Try deleting you blockchain and redownloading it. You can do this by deleting most all the dat files in %appdata%\CatCoin. DO NOT DELETE WALLET.DAT MAKE A BACKUP OF IT WHILE YOU'RE IN THE FOLDER AND KEEP IT SOMEWHERE SAFE.
Your advise worked. Thank-you very much. Do just as he says, including .dats in the folders, but not the wallet.dat, and it fixes the stall forever problem. It does a fresh rebuild, but does not take that long.
