    Instead of updating via the Launcher, please try downloading the manual patch and applying it. It should be significantly faster.

    You can find the manual patch here under "Patch Updates": http://pwi.perfectworld.com/download

    Downloading from the link is considerably faster, but it can still be slowed down a bit if lots of people are downloading.

    I downloaded yesterday afternoon (didn't install till this morning) and it took me 1 hr 26 mins and I have really freaken fast net b:surrender

    This happened to me, I just closed the update window / start box thing and re-launched the launcher and started the update again -- that worked. (At least for now. b:surrender)

    I've officially been installing now for six hours. I had someone suggest the manual patch. So I figured, what the hell, I'd try that on my external hard drive rather than quit my current (lack of)progress. Downloaded the patch, put it on the external, plugged that into the laptop and tried running the patch. Got an error telling me to try an older patch.
