Well, the crash/lockup problem doesn't apply to you... it's either your firewall or your ISP.
Because the auto-update process, changes the exe files, many firewalls will not allow an updated EXE access to the internet. They check the EXE when you add it to the allow list, and if it gets changed, it won't complain, but it wont' allow the new updated executable to work either.
I would just turn that feature off or remove and re-add GCQL.exe/Client.exe to the exception lists. Your call, I personally think it's a very stupid feature as it's done nothing by cause problems and provides very little security benefits.

BTW... you can't have 2 firewalls installed.
