I've got the same problem as "Gon Orrhea" (sorry for your unfortunate name buddy). Get to char launching then socket error. This is so irritating! CPP will suffer from this screwup in the form of lost revenue and increased support costs. |

can CCP please advise us that the launcher is still under their control ?????
or has it been hijacked for some mass account stealing episode ?????
what a sh!tfight this is
Yeah that'd be great, Mr CCP Falcon or other Dev guy. I already logged in to the game and the forums with my log in, on the Russian displayed forms. I plan on changing passwords as soon as this stuff is resolved just in case...but it would give me peace of mind until that point if you can confirm that the launcher and EVE|Gate log in forms were not compromised. This is literally the most misguided series of posts I have ever read.
It's not stupid to change your password when a server encounters unexpected problems, as it is entirely possible that the password database may have been compromised. Personally, I didn't jump to that conclusion, but there is no shame in being prepared. |

All that means is that you cannot sue them through the legal system. This doesn't prevent you from complaining. Generally you will receive due compensation, if they are serious about keeping you as a customer. |

Just a though -- as all of the above listed fixes have failed for me. Perhaps OpenDNS is protecting me from something bad. Why isn't CPP posting to this channel?

Personally, I didn't jump to that conclusion, but there is no shame in being prepared. It's very stupid to assume that a local configuration issue is the result of evil hacker foreigners trying to steal your passwords.
Is it a local configuration issue? I've tried all the fixes and they didn't work. Socket error after choosing my char. There is nothing I haven't done except reinstalling the entire EVE client software. |

The C preprocessor isn't Turing complete (in either sense), so is unlikely to answer your questions. CCP on the other hand are likely either desperately working on a fix, or crashing after being up all night.
My hat his off to you sir. Do you frequent Slashdot? Indeed I meant to say CCP. My comment preprocessor may have mangled my meaning :) I'm still bothered about my inability to log in. I'm going to reboot now.
EDIT: Success. I'm finally in. |

Likewise. What a letdown. |
