Weird Game lockups
off the top of my head... I got nothing.
I'd go through the usual trouble-shooting steps:
Run Memtest
Make sure your drivers are up-to-date:
see if the error also occurs on the test-server or just the live server.
post a CoHHelper
and a HijackThis report and we will be able to help you a little more.
Thanks for the info, I will have that posted tomorrow.
Here are the 2 logs:

Well... a couple things I see right off hand. You've got a couple of USB audio devices that have out of date drivers.
Also, Stardock is considered by some to be malicious software and is associated with random behavior such as the type you describe.
Admunch is also associated with weird internet lockups.
I also see KeePass.exe which is associated with Malware.
MCTadmin is also a suspect executable.
Also looks like you are running NOD32 antivirus.
Ok, i have read around and don't see anything about it so not sure what its related to, maybe the new ultra mode.
Anyway, I have random lock up of CoX only when "exiting game" (quitting to desktop) & at times when loading the "costume changer".
System Specs:
OS: Win7 Pro x64
CPU Type QuadCore AMD Phenom II X4 Black Edition 940 3.0GHZ
System Memory 8192 MB (DDR2-800 DDR2 SDRAM)
Video Adapter 2 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 (896 MB) in SLI Mode
Anyway got any ideas why it only locks up (random) on thous 2 things?
Thanks
