Windows 7, 185 Nvidia drivers and no gameplay
Are you perhaps running in compatibility mode at all? When I tried compatibility mode, it gave me the same result as you are having, extremely long load times, to the point where I would just terminate the process after 10 minutes of watching the progress bar crawl along.
Thank you Incompatible.
The cohupdater.eu file was not set to compatibility mode but the actual CityOfHeroes file was, that's why it wasn't loading.
Thanks again mate.

So, I took the plunge for once and checked out the Windows 7 RC. So far I'm loving it, but on a 64 bit OS, with NVidia's 185 drivers and a 8800GTS CoH takes donkeys to load to the login screen, ages to load the character select then sits on the zone loading for so long the game logs me out!
Uhm... can't be RAM, as I have 4Gig, and my CPU runs at 2.6G.
Must admit, I've all but left the game, but I really wanted to finally get my WS to 50, being only 5 bars away, and as I've spent more than 4 hours on this today I'm at the end of my tether.
