Not sure if I’ve used every version of the profiler, but I’ve used the profiler quite often and it works for me.
I would reboot and don’t start up any apps except Flash Builder (especially, no browsers, PDF utilities, or AIR apps). I’ve seen other SWFs running on the system connect to the profiler instead of the intended SWF. If that doesn’t work for your hello world app, the link here [1] says the profiler defaults to socket port 9999. Make sure it isn’t blocked by firewalls and other security software, and that there are no other processes or services using that port already.
