Log into the EU/Uk Ncsoft and download the client.
If his old computer is still active, he can just copy over the City of Heroes file folder but make sure you rename "City of Heroes EU"
Also, there are plans to move the EU under NA shortly. The client may not be available for new customers now.

Here's a look at my files if you need help:

I've never touched the settings for where Downloads go in Firefox and on my XP systems they go the My Documents\Downloads folder. On my Windows 7 systems they go to Users\%username%\Downloads.|

Those are default settings on installation. I just checked on a brand new computer right after installing Firefox.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

I used to do as the user said above until window 7. The search is powerful so I just search for what I want I don't click through folders anymore. Besides, having an orderly computer makes it easy for thiefs. The MS search allows for a different way of thinking about file management.

Don't give access to your computer to random people. Voila! I have just foiled "thiefs" (sic; "thieves").

Your funny Aggelakis, thieves don't "get" access, they hack in and steal while your computer is online/connected. I had 2 hacks in the last 6 months. One guy looked at a few files and left. The other left something which I removed later.
These hacks came through a Mcafee/MFE, Cisco, Juniper Security Infrastructure.

What the heck websites are you visiting that you're actively being sought out for hacking? No, don't answer that, it was rhetorical and was supposed to remind you of safe browsing. I have literally never been hacked (either my computers themselves or any of my online endeavors, including games, forums, etc.), after having been online since 1995. It sounds more like you need better personal habits than an organized file system.

We have done this, but for some reason the launcher still wants to launcher the US version and not the EU version, do we need to change someing within the program files? Add EU or something to a line?

Are you running the EU client from the desktop icon or the launcher? Are you getting this? It should be just click to play.

Honestly, I think your going to have to either copy the old coh directories from your old computer and then install the updater to see them or install a fresh EU copy and THEN install the updater. Personally, I have not tried to install the EU client from the Updater but only updated it.

No it is currently saying (US) after City Of Heroes? I'm sure I have seen somrhting on the forums where some other EU players were having problems and they just changed something in the programs folder where city of heroes is located.

If you see these two entries:
CITY OF HEROES
CITY OF HEROES (US)
That means your Launcher is set properly to the EU region and you need to run the "CITY OF HEROES" one to connect to the EU servers.
If you are only seeing "CITY OF HEROES (US)" then the Launcher did not find an EU version of City of Heroes installed.
