So... ive had CoH for years and had no problems logging in to play. However recently ive had the red light (top right of screen) on next to Sign in.
I press sign in and it directs me to the login page but asks me to insert CoH Opposing fronts game disk 1. So i do that... then it redirects me to the main menu with the red light still there. and its an endless circle.

So... i downloaded a different copy of CoH from my steam account (from a while back) and uninstalled and deleted all previous folders. and it is STILL asking for the Opposing front CD. (where for those of you who have steam will know that a product on steam does not have a Disc).

Any ideas as to why my game seems to be totally screwed and how to fix it?

-extra notes... there is no firewall on my pc currently (only when playing and windows FW included) There is no issues with my connection to the internet with any of the 40+ PC games i own and currently play.
