Re: RED ALERT 3

@LordkurtDantes Did you install any game modifications/mods/launchers? If so, please both completely uninstall the game and install it again. Does that solve your problem? Disabling the firewall won't work of course with a CD-key error. Do you both actually get this CD key error or does only one of you get this error and the other just can't connect to you because of this? Maybe a stupid question, but can you tell me honestly if you really bought this game or gotten it illegally? Where did you buy the game?

By the way, your title said RA 3 and your message said RA 2 haha. But this is obviously about RA3 when I look at the provided image. RA3, CNC4 and Generals are famous for showing annoying messages about CD-keys being invalid. Wished these games got ever released DRM-free and moddable out-of-the-box on GOG, Steam and/or Origin. There is always hope... 😉
