Key Revoked: Retail version

Postby Blackbeard » Thu Oct 25, 2007 12:57 pm

I've been playing since late May/early June (whenever the retail version was released in the UK :? ) with no problems, but last week my Key was revoked for no apparent reason.
Things I've tried so far to remedy it:
1: asked Bert. :D
2: searched this section of the forum for answers
3: wracked my brains to remember if I'd given out my keycode to anyone - negative.
4: " " " " " " " " " " " let anyone near my CD Rom case - negative.
5: tried authenticating about 50 times since :evil:
6: tried reinstalling the game - THRICE!!
7: asked MOR. 8)
8: Emailed IV. no reply.
9: taken off my spam filter, Emailed IV. awiting reply.
10: ...and a few things I've probably forgotten.

Has anyone else had this happen to them, and if so, can you tell me how the problem was fixed? I would very much appreciate it. Thank you :)

Thanks all who read the post - I'm sure you would have helped if you could.
IV. have given me a new Keycode. They said my old one was probably compromised.
As I'm 110% certain that I haven't given out the code, or allowed anyone near to my computer or Cd Rom case, I'm flummoxed as to how this might happen :?
Anyway, all's well that ends well, and thanks IV for replying so quickly - and, well, Defcon of course :D
