When trying to update the Character Builder on Windows 64; during the Download Phase CB repeatedly throws up an error window reporting a problem with 'Elevator' and needing to close. Closing the error window simply respawns it.

CB itself seems to run fine. Running it in Windows XP compatibility mode gets rid of the Elevator error, but yields a different error after the files have finished downloading. Ironically, even though the 'update failed' restarting the program gives me the message that CB is now up to date. So it failed, but didn't. Or maybe it's updated but doesn't have the proper data, I don't know.

Ironically running it in compatibility mode breaks CB, so after the update I had to remove the compatibility flag to get the program to run.
