I believe the servers it auths to are down. I've gotten the same error since about 1:30am this morning. Now 9:30am it's still not authing.

Any chance someone from Wowhead can confirm this?

I recommend checking the
Customer Service forum
. People tend to make countless threads about failing to authenticate there whenever the auth server is down.
Do this every time you get stuck on "Authenticating."
(Also, don't create an additional thread, it'll probably just get locked and deleted)

The wowhead client has also stopped authenticating for me too - I logged in here OK so I know my user/pass are OK...

I believe people are talking about the Wowhead Client by Wowhead, not World of Warcraft Client by Blizzard.
And yes, the Wowhead Client stopped authenticating for me as well 1 or 2 days ago.
Apparently it's a Wowhead issue, so don't bother Blizzard, they probably don't want to hear about it.
Just keep posting here on Wowhead, the owners of the Wowhead Client.
Ok, I think I repeated the important points a few too many times, but it's better to get it across than go on a wild goose chase to the wrong company...

My client also has started failing, "Authentication failed". No, I'm using the right username and password. (I'm here, aren't I?) And two different installations (at home and at work) are both failing.
So it's not me. Something's dead at Wowhead.
I'm not really getting much of a benefit from this whole Wowhead business anyway, so I do hope I'll see a fix shortly. Otherwise ... meh ... the whole thing gets chucked, hell with it.

Same problem, Wowhead Client won't upload, whether it's an auto-upload after exiting WoW or a manual upload, the upload process starts and then I get the "Authentification failed" message. It's been like this for 2 days now.
Would be better to post about this problem in the Site Feedback forums, there's at least two threads about it over there! ;)
