I just downloaded the game after seeing the 14 day free trial. At first when I tried logging in on IE ver 6 I got to the EULA form where you click "agree". Everytime I clicked agree IE would freeze. I got around this problem using firefox but when I try to create a character I have a new problem. I select "new character" then select a shard, tried them all, which brings me to a screen with a "recall" button and farther down a "play horizons" button. Well I can't ever click the "play horizons" button and if I hit recall it says it was successful to no point or purpose. Near the top of the page it says "Please wait for ActiveX to finish loading"... is that the problem? It doesn't matter how long I wait for it to load because it never loads. I have never had problems with other games, such as WoW or any Skotos game. Can/Will anyone please help me?
