Blizzard apparently fails at reading calendars.  Isn't tomorrow maintenance day?

apparently, according to Blizz, you just have to "keep trying"

I downloaded it in the game, basically bypassing that popup welcome screen and just logging in, then it told me I had to update, downloaded, was very slow, but worked fine. Unfortunately theres no manual update I can post for download since its not really a "patch".

QuoteIf you can get past the launcher, try this, just did it on two different computers:

Open the launcher, let it go through
Log in
Alt Tab
Bring up another WoW
Wait for launcher, log in
Wait for the patch to start updating, log out of the old one

Apparently this is working

try this

Alright, here is what I did on Vista.

Right click on C:\Users\Public\Games\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe (or wherever you have it installed, this is the default) and open it TWICE, both times as an Administrator.

You'll be brought to the WoW log on screen. Enter your log on information on BOTH screens, until you get to the "Updating Patch" screen.

Leave BOTH screens up- One screen will say "Restart Required", do NOT hit the Restart button. What this does is cause the other WoW screen to load the patch normally. After you have loaded the patch, Alt + F4 the "Restart Required" screen and you should be fine logging in.

try this: say 3 hail marys, 5 our fathers, drink lamb's blood, sacrifice a virgin on your computers harddrive and do a rain dance.  It works!
