Ok, so I was downloading AF for a while, it said it still had about 2 hours to go, so I leave and go watch some Seinfeld and War of the Worlds. I come back, and it's at the EXACT same spot. Is my EA Downloader screwed up? Should I download the EA downloader updates that will take me 1/2 an hour?

Is it possible my internet crashed for the FIRST time all year, the night ARMORED FURY comes out? It's too much of a coincidence. So now I can log in to EA downloader, but it says "The download service is termporarily disabled", I'm halfway through downloading AF, and its taking me two minutes to load up onto the internet.

Did EA Downloader ruin my internet? WTF. This night was going to be great for me but NOT ANY MORE.

"There is a problem with the download service. You should try again later."

I threw up when you said Seinfeld. That aside have you tried 'Power cycling' your modem(If you have one).
If not I don't have a clue. Sorry.

restart your PC, restart your modem, download those updates, go to bed, and try it again in the morning. since you're panicking, i recommend you do something to take your mind off it, such as watch something really funny, eat a snack and read something, or, well, you know.

Try this

Go to this folder.

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Downloader\cache

That will have your account name for the Downloader.
Delete the contents of this folder.
I had to do this for Euro forces.
Dont worry next time you log in this folder will be remade. This should let you DL AF again.

As long as you have your account info your good to go!
See ya out there!!

I always have this kind of shit with the EA downloader. Up until now my solution has been to watch the damn thing and restart it everytime it stops. Next time around I'll try the advice given on this thread.
