Everytime I log into the new 1.6.2 minecraft launcher, I get a message saying "incorrect username and password" when i check the log, down at the very bottom it comes up with the error :Could Not Log In: Cannot connect to authentication server"
I checked magic launcher for 1.6.1 and it did the same thing. It would seem at though the security certificate error has not only affected my browsers, but it's affected java and my minecraft login. I checked and my set date and time are correct, but it still seems to happen. Whether it be minecraft launcher or internet browser, it just wont let me log into anything at all.
Any suggestions?
here is a picture of the log.

What do you get if you go to http://login.minecraft.net/?

Bad Request

It's fine when I go to the actual website it works just great. It's the main launcher itself.

Hey I had this exact problem, but i fixed it, i tried so many websits looking for answers but i couldn't find any. Then i remembered i had changed my system time. Check if your system time is on the correct date or correct day, hope this helps...

Wow.
How much off was your time ?
