Hmm, I seem to be having this problem too, but only with Windows Vista (Win2k is ok). It started when 4.1 was released.

My video card is a nVidia 6600GT. I see the startup screen fine & offline mode works, but I only get a black screen after clicking start. Everything looks ok in the F2 log. TCPView shows that a connection is being made to the serverlist. I can't open any GUI windows (like the F5 window). I can open the playerlist, but no servers are shown in the Servers tab. I also tried deleting the filename cache & weblevels, but it didn't help.

Edit: It didn't download the new gui images. I tried putting them in (& deleting the cache), but that didn't help either.

Edit2: It doesn't seem to be downloading anything at all. The weblevels directory isn't being recreated.

Edit3: The socket closes when I put in an incorrect password, but I don't get a disconnection message on the client.
