    i assume you just updated your OS...

    after an OS update(atleast @vin vista) it starts doing that,on one of the computers i have and play it does it too, but just keep on trying to run it and it should work after 3-6 times

    vista sucked even from the very begining. Why ppl still use it i won't be able to understand that

    Normal steps

    Uninstall client, delete folder

    Reinstall client, set compatibility mode tu main.exe and launcher.exe , run launcher.exe and main.exe with administrator account ( if i remember this right it's in the same tab with compatibility in vista )

    make sure hes got netframework 3.5 or 4.0 already installed before all of these

    Yeah tell me about it haha, vista sucks to the max level. But, on topic, none of your steps worked :p But thanks anyway.

    Got it working, and it's as Calvin said. The anti virus was moving files from the blizzard mu folder to the dump bin without telling him because it thinks it's a trojen (I know it's not), therefor, causing the main.exe to crash as it does not have the necessary (spell check) files. Thanks.

    Anyway, glad it worked
