I change my firewall rules to allow Minecraft, and changed the program to run as Administrator (even though the only user account on the Win7 box is Adminstrator) to no avail. I then uninstalled and reinstalled Minecraft and the issue has disappeared. I am concerned as I did see a comment somewhere about having a 32bit version of Java instead of a 64bit, but can't find it again and couldn't do anything about it on my 32bit box anyway. Thanks to all who have commented here to help give me ideas to remediate.

Agree with Georgia, why isn't there a fix. My sons spent some of their Christmas money to get this broken program.

Just downloaded 1.4.6 for my kids today after they purchased with their Christmas money. Now they complain that when they exit inventory it crashes. See attached crash report.
