Broken record here, check your firewall settings. Also i've honestly never seen a reason to delete autoexec.aut if you applied the full patch from filefront.

well... I had the same problem but Jason should put the quote below in same post with the downloads and registration page.
Testing now opened publicly - Other Info
Bug in latest Full Patch
.... you have to delete two files from 2 different folders. For some reason they mess up the starting of the game, including patching.

Please go into your EndlessAgesR folder and delete the file "autoexec.aut" and inside the EndlessAgesR\GameFiles folder delete "autoexec.aut".
Sorry for the trouble.

I use windows xp and Vista. On the xp box, even though I do not run the firewall, I still had to add the axp and the exe file to the list of approved programs. As soon as I did, the update processed and I was on in no time. Sounds dumb since the firewall is off, but it still effects the launching of programs.
On the Vista, I had to manually apply the patches from the other download. Ever since I have had minimal problems connecting and playing.

i have not had any problems with vistas firewall or even UAC, when it comes to EA, hell almost every game i have tried even the vista approved store bought games give me hell, but EA never gave me a problem that was caused by vista.

It installs 2 shortcuts, an EndlessAgesR, and Play Endless Ages,, if I do the EndlessAgesR it hangs like that. Maybe try other one?

I think they link to the same program...they just have to fix the installers to make only 1 icon...I had like 6 icons before lol.
If one works and one doesn't, use the one that works, its worth a try
