Nothing happens when i press the "Connect" button. What is the problem?

First thing you need to do is check your internet connection and if you have any software (ex. firewall) that could be blocking the RGC connection. If everything with your pc is in order, probably the chat server is temporarily down. Be patient, it will be back up quickly or at least you will see an error message informing you what the issue is and what is the estimated time when the server will be running again.

I get a warning that a virus/trojan is detected in the rgc.exe. Does RGC contain any malicious software?

No! RGC is not any virus / trojan nor does it contain any other malicious software. If you get such a warning you are either using a software that is returning a large number of false positives, software that is not properly configured or your pc is infected with some sort infection that you need to clear.
