SSL Connect Error: Error Contacting Server

Hello,

When clicking the play online button I get an error saying SSL Connect Error: Error Contacting Server. Is there anything I can do besides re downloading the game? I had to do that before and lost all my recipes and saves.

Thanks

Loosing recipes is not needed. Make a copy of the all.macro file (and if you wish also the options.txt file) from the Foldit directory in another place. After reinstalling the game copy those files in the new Foldit directory after closing the game. That way you can keep all your recipes (and settings).
This is also described in the wiki.

I am still having this problem, even after re-installing the game and resetting my password.
I get the error message, "SSL connect error: Error contacting server." every time I try to log in.
Is this still a problem for anyone else, or is it just me?
