I dont know why but everytime I try to install factions ill connect to arena.net just fine, but when I get to the downloading screen nothing happens. It just says *Downloading...* and will be like that for hours. Has this happened to anyone else and is there anyway to fix it? (its not my firewall I had it off when I tried this.)

Are you installing Factions,or trying to play after you've installed it?

Don't bother.

Add the key to your account and then turn on Guild Wars, and leave it at the login screen overnight.

It'll download everything.
