Client fails to start with the error mentioned in title.

Network diagnostics (Basic, Traceroute, Download test, SSL buttons one by one) in launcher are below after ‘----’.  
Also, logs server contains ‘network access disabled’ error message: [http://prntscr.com/i90467](http://prntscr.com/i90467)  
Also, http(s)://eveonline.com/ fails to open.

At the same time, I have normal web, https acess to other sites, teamspeak, etc.

Any advice?

Ok, look like the problem is gone, without any fixes from my side.

If it happens again, check your hosts file and remove any entries related to EVE Online that you may have added there at some point.
