Well, I downloaded it and it worked fine so this really seems to be aproblem with your machine. I am sorry but I can´t help you there.

And don´t worry about not being motivated enough to code a client. It took me over a year to get myself together and start it. And I never would have done it if William W. Wong had not written Furi. He definitely has done most of the work, implementing the full behaviour and doing some modifications to the code surely wasn´t so much work.
