There is a bug, the retrieve timeout isnt stored
properly.
But you can close down the pinger.
Open DFBHDPinger.cfg in notepad with wordwrap off.
Change the RetrieveTimeOut value, save
and start.

I'll fix this in the next version.

Dont know.
Do they use some kind of proxy ?
Try downloading the glb file through IE
and make that work :).
