im reinstalling and if i get the same stuff ill tell you by the way if just uninstalling mohaa as well

Edit: it still doesnt work it's like my connection has been banned from almost every server i wonder if my ip has been posted on a cheat site or something

check thecheatpolice.com - although 98% of mohaa doesnt use their arrested cheats page for banning because those who run the site are fools. try reconnecting a few times. ;)

ok mg42 do u use gamespy to connect to ur games?
If u do...dont.
Here's what i did. I restarted my computer. Usually i go right to Gamespy going thru my start button on my desktop. Dont use gamespy. Just go directly into Spearhead as if u are going to play a single player game. Once u get to the Spearhead menu go to Multiplayer then click Join Game, Browse Internet server's, find a server u like and PLAY!! Tell me if this doesnt work. It worked for me it should work for u. Dont forget to restart ur computer

During my last few days of testing..some work and some servers don't. I'm guessing it's a server side issue although gamespy had me going for a little while. I can connect to most servers but I can't connect to my own clan server which i think has been updated recently.

Where do you go in the registry to edit your CD Key?

ITs under this directory C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\Ereg MOHAAS but still if u do change ur cd key it wont do anything. Ive already tried it.
