Maybe it is a firewall issue that is stopping it from downloading the core.
Maybe some one could give you a copy of their core and you could drop it into your folder. |

Have you tried using a different client?

I had this issue last night when setting up my SMP client. I simply cleared it all off and tried it again to solve my issue. I actually had to purge a few clients last night, but only their work folders.
First thing to try, go to where you installed the client and remove 'queue.dat' and everything in the sub-folder 'Work'. Open the client again and it should try to grab a new WU. There was a post on foldingforum.org a few days ago that said the core was incorrectly loaded to the server and was causing issue, so that alone could've been the cause of your issue. If all of that fails, try nuking the entire install and reinstalling it.

Does it not download the client, or does it fail to open it after downloading?

You have to consider the server activity @ Stanford with everyone downloading the new A3 cores. On Monday, Stanford had set the wrong target location for the A3 core within their servers before they realized the issue several hours later. During this time, no one was able to download the new core. I hope the issue has been resolved for you.
