I wrote the D2D support team 2 days ago and so far I'm SOL, no response yet. If D2D has a count on the number of times one can activate the U-Boat Missions Addon, I may have exceeded it by now with the original key.
Anyway, I'll see if they get back with me soon, waiting 2 days on a trouble ticket with no response is giving me a cold feeling about them. Guess 10 bucks only gets you so far!!
I've said my peace in this forum before regarding having to pay for a patch, I'm not going to step up onto my soapbox now. I recommend the Addon because it does correct some of the problems of SH4. What I've had difficulity with is going along with paying for corrections that are disguised along with additional content (U-Boats in the Pacific). I just don't think the game industry should wring out more money for corrections to a flawed initial release, no matter what "extras" they put with it. And for the D2D to make you jump through hoops after a couple of activations is getting a bit much. God bless them, everyone.

Don't install it beneath Program Files. Just install the Ubisoft directory directly on the root of the drive. Otherwise Vista screws with write attempts on the files. I am running in Vista 64 and no majors issues. Not sure about the D2D but I have reinstalled mine a few times without issue.
