So, I've been on HB all day on two different machines. I updated one and had the settings error and deleted the "kiting.cs" file to resolve the issue.
I updated on my laptop via downloading 2.5.6485.511.zip since my internet crashed while the downloader was running. Once I did it that way, I was getting the same Authentication errors as others (even though I can log in via the other machine just fine).
So I downgraded to 2.5.6396.497.zip and I can log in just fine. I went through the autoupdater and not I am using 2.5.6485.511 as noted in HB and can log in just fine.
I am doubting that it is a firewall/DNS/etc. issue as has been advised. Perhaps there is something wrong with the 2.5.6485.511.zip package.
