I had this problem some days ago and all of above items could not help me. I have ESET Smart Security 5.0 on my SONY VAIO laptop which works in interactive mode! Finally I found the problem, ESET was blocking VS2012! In the past, ESET had asked me to allow the VS2012 to communicate with Microsoft, I had chosen "Deny Access" and ESET had mad a rule for denying VS2012. I omitted this rule from "ESET rules zone" and my issue was solved!
