After finding out that character creation was broken I left and did a few things around the house and such, only to come back and see there was a patch! Awesome! So, logged in and created my character. The character appears in my list now but I cannot log in. The proxy.exe thing gives this error.
>> Login Check: Login FAILED
login failed, go back to the login screen
Error receiving header on port 3500, error=10053 -- aborting
TCP connection on port 3801 closed gracefully
Any help would be appreciated? I only learned about this today and really want to play the game again!
