warpatch.exe is the file you need to launch. That doesn't work?

I reloaded mine from CD as soon as it came and didn't experience any issues.

Was running the beta client before but decided to reload from DVD. No problems so far and plus you get the cinematic in the beginning.

After losing my hard drive last Thursday I reloaded and have had no problems.

Maybe try uninstalling and redoing the install. Perhaps the manual has other tips, or FAQ on their website.

But beyond the intro movie, their really isn't a reason to install from the DVD's that we didn't get from downloading the client, correct?

Spam proggie is broke from last patch, nothing to do with install! :D

Should be a fix soon, I would think.

I reinstalled off the discs since it was recommended to help the game from causing my puter to go link dead.

I also had to open/secure ports via my router.
