Had the same problem earlier today on my Windows 7 64 bit machine.

Follow the instructions on this page

http://www.java.com/en/download/help/java_blocked.xml

and enter "http://www.mathworks.com" on the exception site list.

Then run the download agent.

you can find the security tab by going to the configure java program.
