Are you connected to the internet?
Is any firewall software preventing Multiwinia from accessing the internet?
Are you trying to connect from work/uni? Are you behind a proxy?

Yeah, that really isn't going to be a problem. However, the message "Can not contact key server" is to do with Steam and the way they distribute keys, so I'm afraid it's a problem at their end, not ours. As it's the weekend, I can't get in contact with them, but if this problem persists and others are having it, I'll see what we can do.
