I basically have the same issues. I can log in and actually get to the game, but once I am there, it knocks me completely offline ( I am on dial up, but going to broadband tomorrow) I am hoping that this will solve the issue. Is there anything else that I should be checking? I have the .020 installed. I just can't do anything once i get to the game, and everything seems dark, nothing ever completely loads before I am disconnected. Any suggestions at all will be helpful, and I look forward to the site  being completely up to par, I love the game!!! Great work !!
