Not running as admin causes this issue. (i.e. rightclick > run as admin)

You will also need to make sure your firewall and antiviruses are not blocking the application. The launcher does an initial self update check which firewalls dont seem to like and causes this error

also.. my firewall is off (windows firewall is rubbish i always keep it off) my anti virus is not blocking the game .. because 1 hour before the error i was playing normally.. why it will block it now?! besides anti virus will pop up a message when it blocks any thing. i did not c any message since the error. also my brother cant play lol in his laptop .. he gets the same error. is the server down or something like that ?!

Using a router? try plugging directly into the modem and seeing if it's your router.
