Scott, I reported a similar problem a week ago concerning my laptop using a wireless connection. I found out that my anti-virus program (Symantec) blocked R-2.2.1 and a few other programs but not R-2.2.0. The same seems to apply to F-Secure's anti-virus program. I had no problems using a PC.
I hope this helps.
