If it's saying "not downloaded" I think that means it can't connect to minecraft.net(or wherever it does) to download the files. could your firewall be blocking it maybe?

Not a bug.

  • Restart your PC or log off and on
  • delete .minecraft (Backup worlds !)
  • start Minecraft.exe

If you still cannot login then, there my be something wrong with your account. You should be able to login with your username / password at http://minecraft.net .

Have you tried the "force update" option before you log in?

If that doesn't work try opening the task manager and look for "javaw.exe" if it's there end it. that should enable you to delete the .minecraft file [don't forget to backup your worlds ;) ]
