Total Failure of MoD

I was an avid fan of the Eastern front mod for a long time. I even offered space to download the Mod when it first came out. I think this mod has REAL potential...but...when I tried to reinstall the mod I got nothing but grief.

-slow download speed from hell.
-told me I couldn't install with ?"! characters etc
-refused to install a desktop shortcut that worked
-now it's told me that my company of heroes directory doesn't exist

OK wtf guys? I'm a patient and understanding guy. I'm not a computer noob. I've installed this Mod before, but now it's totally f'd up and LITERALLY unplayable due to the fact that I've punched a hole in the keyboard from trying to reinstall it.

Who's the f u c k t a r d that has ruined the  before...easy installation of your mod?

:: edit::  why is it trying to install to:
C:\Users\"my username"\Downloads\{pf}\THQ\Company of Heroes

as a default?

Well, lets settle some facts first.

Quote-slow download speed from hell.

We do not own ModDB servers. It's like blaming the boss because the weather is hot.

I  never thought was so hard to delete the ":" on that screen ::).

If you didn't install it correctly, do you think is gonna run?

I find funny this statment, it's still easy.

You tell us, it tries to detect your CoH directory, I don't know why it tries to install it threre, perhaps doesn't have the necessary permisions or you have screwed your CoH registry.

I helped some users before perhaps I can help you. As you already said, you aren't a computer noob, perhaps will make things easier, what drives to the next question:

Do you want help to solve this or just wrote that down to release your frustration?
