    You will need to install the East Asian Language pack that is on your original Windows disc.
    Outlined below is a step-by-step guide to installing it in your computer. (For Windows XP - Vista users might have to undergo different steps. They should still be similar)

    Try it and see if it works for you:

    1. Insert your Windows XP CD
    2. Go to Control Panel
    3. Go to Regional and Language Options
    4. Click on the "Languages" Tab
    5. Click on the "Install files for East Asian Languages" checkbox and make sure that it's checked.
    6. Click on the OK button for the dialog box that appears.
    7. Click on the OK button of the window to close it, and begin the installation.

    What anti virus program are you running? I've seen that error before when Trend Micro decided that the Launcher.exe file was a trojan and deleted it.

    Definately check to see if the launcher.exe file is still on your computer, if it is make sure its listed as an exception in Norton. Also check the client.exe file for the same.

    The only other thing I would guess at is your Quarentine in Norton. Its still possible you got a false positive on a file from the game.
