Gamespot is faster but you have to d/l some crappy program to download from there...
i used it cuz this file is 600+ mb and they have 300+k d/l speeds

Now install it of course

Step 2: Download UORice from http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e9425109/UO_RICE.htm (removes client incryption)

Step 3: Unzip it. (you can use a tool like winzip that you can download for free from: http://www.winzip.com/ )

Step 4. Run UORice. (you only need to run it one time, and it automatically removes client incryption)

Step 5. Change your login.cfg in our c:program filesUltima Onine 3D (or 2d if u got that one) with notepad to this (delete everything in there and just paste this

;Loginservers for Ultima Online
;Do not edit this file or patching will fail!  Always save a backup.
LoginServer=bigj.game-host.org,2593

Step 6:  Run no_crypt_client.exe (The client that UORice creates.) Should be in ur Ultima Online install directory now

Step 7. Type in your desired user name and password.
