ok, so when I try to run my autoupdater its informs me that it is unable to download the file list. I can connect to the internet so its not that thats stopping me and I have disabled my windows firewall.

Im really stumped for what could be causing this, is there away for me to get the latest version of the launcher on filefront or something? rather than running the autoupdater.exe?

I tried removing those two files and the problem persists Sad, I even removed the autoupdater, redownloaded it and did it again and It still doesnt work.

an interesting thing tho, no matter how many times I remove the autoupdater and redownload it, it always displays its last modified date as 2009, when I originally tried to play EIR. ( just incase this info helps).  Autoupdater version is also 1.05. If I use a short cut to open the launcher without going through the autoupdater it doesnt let me login, launcher is version 0.6.0d.


Thanks for trying BoB.

Could be your router blocking things.
And do you have any other firewalls on anti-virus software?

I dont have a router, I live in private halls- it could be possible that they somehow filter their internet.

I have disabled my anti-virus while trying to figure this out. My steam sometimes doesnt work either though actually- yet my browsers are fine.

Right click the .exe and do "Run as Administrator"
