Unable to start up launcher

[fangar]

Suddenly today, upon opening the launcher i get this error.

"An error has occurred in the script on this page.

Line: 17
Char: 2
Error: 'Global' is undefined
Code: 0

Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?

Yes/No"

I clicked yes but it still shows nothing.

The servers are in maintenance o.o. Unless you did that earlier.

i could login earlier till my PC randomly restarted and then this happened. My friend was able to go online without any problems while i am facing this at the moment.

This is a complete and total stab in the dark. Truly.

Have you tried the ipconfig trinity of commands? It sounds like something inside the SE server farm isn't updating when it should in terms of routing and name resolution. By running the ipconfig trinity you're forcing your computer to get new routing information, thereby fixing whatever isn't getting updated. Just my take on it.

Considering this seems to rear it's head every 7 days or so I'd say a server machines ip address is on 7 day lease and therefore on a renew is getting changed but the routing info isn't being spread to the clients.

sorry, i'm completely clueless when it comes to IT but how should i go about running the ipconfig trinity?

Thank everyone for the help. After screwing my game and computer for quite a while, I tried disabling my firewall's browser protection and i'm back online.
