soft-lock crisis over??

[toxic]

Having had this problem for over a week now it seems to have dissappeared from my gaming world. I've tried all the fixes suggested in all the forums with very limited success but for the past 24 hours it seems to have passed. Is any one else still having problems or am I just on a lucky streak?

what do you mean by soft-lock?

I think he talking about how his game used to freeze up on battle.net. If that's the case, then it's good to hear that Blizzard might have sorted it out :thumbsup:

Orphan is right...alot of players were having problems where 5 seconds into their game it would just lock up with no way to play. I've heard from some players that the problem was intermittent for them but I'm hoping that the whole problem is behind us now. A common belief was it arose from conflicts with the new WARDEN program which Blizzard was running to stop the use of 3rd party programs such as maphack but those of us with old graphics cards were getting caught in the backlash. Well im off to see if I can still play.
