something wrong with my updater... i think...

i purchased the game online yesterday along with a months subscription. now everytime i try to play it i have to go through the updater and it reinstalls it onto my computer. i'm really new to this, this is the only online game i have bought over the net, all my other games were disks and much easier to figure out. surely i can't have to spend 5 hours downloading the game just to be able to play it for 2. To be honest it's getting pretty beyond a joke now as i am now redownloading, which does mean i have spent about 8 hours downloading the game in the space of 24. please help me before i cry
