When I type in console ionic start app
I see something like this:

I check this on two pc’s with Windows 7 64-bit and i think it’s NOT the problem with proxy.
EDIT: Oh, and the cordova and ionic is up to date by the way 
Cheers 
OK, i get what’s the point- the problem is the new version of Cordova- 3.5.0-something. If you have similar problem, just
- uninstall cordova by
npm -g uninstall cordova
- install cordova BUT proper version:
npm install -g cordova@3.4.0-0.1.2
(for me this version works like a charm)
- PROFIT!
