[bug] Window mode not working, and web site issues

Hello folks --

First, window mode does not work for me. I am running the game with "C:\Program Files\games\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\GalCiv2.exe" w, but no window mode, and I have full screen deselected, and no window mode. Other games work in window mode just fine (like Civ4).

My computer setup:
AMD FX
Asus A8V Deluxe
2GB RAM
nVidia 6800 Ultra, running driver version 81.98, dual monitors
Creative Audigy 2zs, with latest drivers

And for the web site bug. The download for the new version of the game released tonight did not work on Firefox 1.5.01. When trying to get to the download page, it took me to the login page. I tried to log in several times, and each time it would not validate me. I treid creating a new account, and I got the following exception:

Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '@Email'.

What resolution is your deskotp running by chance?

As for the web issue, sounds like the DB hicupped. Give it a shot a bit later.

This message board has tons of issues with firefox and opera. I have a weird issue where I'm logged in, but the system doesn't act like I am. So when I try to download the patch it's telling me to register even though it says welcome bigtrouble77 at the top. If I try and fill out the form it breaks 75% of the time.

Hopefully you guys can test the site for alternative browsers. I understand that'll be difficult being that you use asp, but it's worth it.
