Okay, I have found the reason for this issue: my antivirus software has a web URL check feature. If this is enabled, it will block the connection attempt for whatever reason. I really have no clue what it doesn't like about the connecton but when I turn this feature off, a connection is made instantly.

Yes, still not working. Seems like it can't connect to the server or something like that.

I can confirm this issue too (from Germany). Yesterday I reinstalled my PC and since then I noticed that neither the License Manager nor the Monkey is working. LM told me something about server timeout after some time. I don't know how long this issue exists. I'm using a Toneport UX1 on Windows 8.1 x64 with the latest drivers if that helps.
