I am hoping to get some help from other people regarding my computer and the fiesta downloader.

I got this computer a year ago from my dad so that i could play fiesta. it had 222gb of desk space (it's a massive amount of space) and could install fiesta properly with the normal 1 hour of install time. then, my dad came in about 10 months later, decided that the computer was insecure, and opened up an admin account that blocks every download on the computer, plus installing mcafee, a highly over-protective computer security system. since then, whenever i tried to log into fiesta, i would enter the launcher, type my username/password, and then enter the fiesta character selection screen. then, it would freeze and say 'cannot connect to server'. I attempted to re-install it, but i think that outspark changed the downloading file. in any case, fiesta now downloads differently. now, it will take an hour to install the downloader onto my computer (exactly so) and then it will get halfway into the fiesta installation, when i get an error message. "warning: cannot download sharplauncher.exe (not sure if that's the actual file name, but it's close)". i would press 'ignore' and it would continue to download. then, i would get another error message. "cannot access sharplauncher.exe. file not granted access". now, i'm wondering why it does this, and how i can get fiesta on my computer. please do not send me any rude messages, you would be wasting your breath on a brick wall, and that is also not the point of this topic.

lol well i think the only choice here is to figure out a way to get ur dad to grant u admin access to the fiesta files or u play fiesta on the admin account... thas about all i got from that... another thing is when downloading fiesta temporarily turn of McAfee... it is a very protected virus scanning system... and it is probobly stopping u from downloading it if its not the andmin thing...
