Client constructor blocks or deadlocks

I am evaluating the couchbase product and hit a brick wall immediately when running through the simple hello world example.

I have a 3 node cluster running couchbase enterprise 1.8.2 on ubuntu 10.04 64 bit VMware images. All three are running in VMWare player instances on Windows 7 64bit.

When I try to run the Main example on Windows 7 using Java6 (64 bit) the code blocks somewhere in the Client constructor. The result is the logging below.

2012-06-14 14:07:46.313 INFO com.couchbase.client.CouchbaseConnection: Added

I have also tried debugging but the code blocks in the constructor at

client = new CouchbaseClient(uris, "default", "");

The program never completes.

This works fine in a Linux environment with the following output received

Is there a JDK for windows 7 or a configuration setting that can be used to prevent this?
