Nope, no other versions to get confused - just the two versions, torrent and non torrent. Now, after having done the reinstallation of the drivers (already updated, and were already installed on my comp before it went crazy), I clicked on the torrent version, just to see what happens and VIOLA, it works fine. I'm still scratching my head on this one. *shrug shrug* But yes, Hello Kitty is EEEEEEEEvil!! It's an addiction no one can explain. BTW, this open beta version is WAY bigger than I thought it was gonna be....I get totally lost, but then, I just started. If I didn't have a general idea of where everything was from closed beta, I'd be in real trouble - now they have added Tokyo, London, Paris, etc and several new characters. I think everyone from AGLAMI should play. It should make for some interesting HKO blogs, in the very least. *pictures screen shots of reinder taking over Floropolis as the Omnipotent Dictator*
