what is the error you are getting?

have it sorted now contacted big fish they sent me this link
'_http://downloads.bigfishgames.com/downloads/gamemanager/bfginstaller.exe_'
(http://downloads.bigfishgames.com/do...ginstaller.exe)

Once you have downloaded the file at the link provided, right click on
it and "Run As Administrator". This got rid of the "Run as"
administrator or current user box that kept popping up when the Bigfish
game manager was trying to install new games. If you don't run it as
administrator you get the very same problem popping up that the new game
installs was causing. This fixed the problem for me.

I have been a member of Big Fish Games community for a few years.
I bought this new Gateway puter (which runs Vista 64 bit encryption)
and I cannot even access the site all I get is this d___ 404 error message.
Or the page just sits there like its loading - literally for hours !!

I've gone through all the Security , etc, etc settings
and still no luck. Is it Norton? Gateway itself? That crossed
my mind as Gateway has its own game center.
I've also been prevented from signing up at other games sites which
makes me real suspicious.

Suggestions as to get around this would be appreciated.

I'd uninstall any of gateway's software for one. I'd also throw the computer
in the trash seeing as it's officially cursed by the cow, but at the very
least get rid of their software.

They've been doing this for years, and bigfishgames is quite a big
competitor for them.

They have to promote their games site because they know their computer sells
are rapidly declining from a lack of quality product.

Good news is, all the games you already bought on bigfish can be registered
again through the BFG client, so you don't have to repurchase them. Yay.

What do BigFish have to say about this?
