yes there have been other posts on this error but there is not yet a fix and its starting to get silly.

Every post I have seen about this the person has ended up resorting to downloading the game via torrent or taking it off of another computer. Please tell me there is a solution that is in the works?

Things I have tried: reinstalling fresh, deleting the patch files, setting read only to off on the file folder, AV off, Firewall off, msconfig to kill BG programs on reboot.

This works fine on my laptop and my ps3 but not my main computer, this has been an issue for me since beta day one and I am getting pretty sick of it.
