I used Morphicon/Metaboli. Remember that this is 1.01 when you download. If you patch it will screw up your protection files and you'll have to reinstall. All you need to do is add the German 0.8 languagepatch after first run of the game.

If I'm not mistaken Silver has used them as well.

There is anothe German retailer bol.de, I could not get the purchase through there as they based their payment process on a popupwindow and I just couldn't get it to work. I suggest being vary of that one unless you wan't to add a bit of risk to you payment process. Also It comes out with a completely different price than they state intially. And thirdly it seems to be a boxed version, not an online one. The third point is unconfirmed as I did not go through with the purchase.

Took me about three hours to download from metaboli. The order process was simple. However, I never did receive an email with my keys. Good thing I printed them out.

The installation went well and after the language add-on, I was good to play. There's obvious spelling errors in the language add-on, but nothing that makes it hard to read.

Following Panzer's lead I purchased and installed with one problem that was easily resolved

Morphicon/Metaboli
Purchased for €42 (=$55.49)
Downloaded 2 files
> ArmedAssault_setup (1Gb)
> setup01 (1.7Gb)
got two passwords
> Serial Number
> Multiplayer Key

German 0.8 languagepatch
Downloaded 1 file
6thSense-ArmA_Language_Patcher_v0.8 (515Kb)

I was then ready to install

> Installed ArmedAssault_setup (1Gb) and used Multiplayer Key
> Clicked run on desktop icon and got this error message. Direct X was not up to date


> Went to Microsoft website search for DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer, downloaded dxwebsetup and ran it.
> Clicked run on desktop icon and error message did not happen, instead went to 'Protection system' window. Driver FAQ does refer to StarForce, I clicked Yes to install. I then entered the 'Serial Key' to activate game.
> Game started OK but its all in German, I dont know whay i was surprised !
> Installed 6thSense-ArmA_Language_Patcher_v0.8 (515Kb) that creates a new folder. In the new folder is file 6th-ArmA1.01_GERMAN_TO_ENG, I installed that
> Game started OK and in English this time
> When straight into multiplayer and game crashed
> Rebooted, went into Norton and specified AA as permit
> Started game, straight to multiplayer, filter for Tacticalgamer, join & I'm in

I also used Morphicon/Metaboli. My experience was very similar to Exploding Silver's, except I did not have any problems with DirectX or Norton. In fact, everything went very smoothly, and I had my receipt e-mail within minutes. (I took a screenshot of the receipt page, just in case, but did not need it.) My download took about an hour.

I just purchased through metaboli, and am downloading at a whopping 56K. I think their files are rate limited - I have them both dloading at once and have equal speeds on each. And it's not my connection, because I'm at work and have pretty much all of a 40M pipe to myself because most everyone has left for the holiday.

Hoping I can at least get these downloads by tonight...
