Game Exited With Error [12]

[WDWTigger72]

Anybody else receiving a message "Game Exited With Error [12]" when logging into pirates online? The account name and password screen (login screen) launch successfully, and it starts going through verifying phase 1 through 5 with no issues. The screen then refocuses/shifts itself to the top left corner of my screen. The screen shows "Connecting" with a progress bar at the bottom and only stays at "0%". The game then exits immediately and the report a bug web page comes up. I have already reported the issue twice, and have had no issues playing the game for the past few weeks. My computer is definitely up to speed with hardware/software. I have disabled my virus software briefly to see if that helps which it has not...Any suggestions or people run into this previously?
