wuala blocks during startup in linux

loads config etc and blocks in waitpid when I strace the wuala script...

this is behind a company-firewall that does no forwarding from the internet to the wuala host

  *bump*
  
  Just got a reminder Email from the Wuala team about my alpha account; doesn't seem like they've release an update though. Is this likely to be fixed I wonder?

  Wuala does not work behind many corporate firewalls. A proxy solution is planned for the open beta.

  actually this does indeed only happen at work so it's probably the firewall. any chance of switching to port 80 or 443 in such a case?
