Is the "start in" parameter properly set on the shortcut you are using? (Or any new AV products running?)

It is also possible the server may need a kick. I'll login to test.

Tested a quick login. All was fine. (on Vista no less.) So the server is OK.

I'm thinking av interference. You can try downloading a backup exe from our ftp archives to see if that might help. (perhaps your exe got corrupted somehow... hrm side note to self: compress old files windows features... I wonder what they would do, could possibly cause interference...)

I take it you launched OP and not EAW to try to log into the dynaverse? I saw your post so I logged into the forge and played for a few hours. The Hydran planet is almost mine!
