Error on Warcraft, anyone help?

[FrozenTroll]

I'm getting this error when I try to connect to Battle.Net. Wanted to see if anyone here knew what to do before I go email Blizzard, or something.

Error: "There was an error writing to your Hard Drive while trying to download a file from Battle.Net. You may need to free some space. Check your Hard Drive and try again"

I have 770 gigabytes free on my hard drive...Any ideas? Help is appreciated.

Are you at the latest patch? I had this, too, when I tried to patch. Had to download it from their website. It may be a problem with too big of an HD. It happens on older games, however, I would think that Warcraft 3 wouldn't have it.

I have the latest patch, Normally when I reinstall it works, tried that and got the same error again. Starting to annoy me, Can't get on

Check WC3's permissions? Perhaps something like an AV is blocking it from writing files.

Are you running Vista by any chance? I think I had the same problem

What you need to do is run it as administrator. Or just disable access controls, which is a lot better, because then you don't get idiotic popup spams whenever you try to do anything.
