When i fire up the NightMist client I try to sign in and after i've typed in my account name and password a message pops up that says "Run Time Error '52': Bad file name or number" I have uninstalled/reinstalled NM about 5 times now, i have no viruses and my harddisk is just fine so any ideas on what the heck is going on? it was working just fine 2 days ago.

Not being one to wait around forever to get an answer i did quiet a bit of poking around and found the answer to my problem. Heres what happened. After installing new IDE cables the other night(switched to new spiffy round ATA ones) i decided to change one of my external HD's from usb 2.0 or firewire, well when i rebooted it came up looking for some software crap for the firewire and without thinking i popped in the HD's install disk. well that S.O.B program litteraly renamed all of my freaking drives from what they previously were, when it did this it renamed my external drive from C: to E:, well somehow somewhere on that eternal drive there was some file that NM and apparently numerous other programs i wanted to use had needed, and none of these programs were willing to work for me. So to fix this i went into Programs/Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Computer Managment/Disk Management, and i renamed all of my drives back to what they previously had been. Everything is working like a Champ again. :) So thus i have answered my own problem and if anyone else comes up with this bizzar issue well heres teh answer!
