     Ah yes. I should have paid closer attention. Sorry about that. The
answer is still no, however.

     Believe it or not, there are no "glaring" problems with Diablo
and/or battle.net for me. They both have always worked extremely well.
>From reading on this NG and others it seems that quite a few other
people do have problems with them, though. It was shortsighted of me to
say that I hoped this was the final patch. Obviously there are people
out there who are still having problems with compatibility issues,
"bugs", etc. I have it from a good source that you will get the patch
you are looking for in the coming months. Until then have loads of fun
on battle.net! See you around.
