Hmm well I play both UO and WoW. I use my newest desktop and it plays WoW witch has 6 million online smoothly but UO with only 150K most of them being japanese on japanese servers and I still lag up like a mofo. walking i'm ok, but combat adn running is not good for me. There was a time when i could ride on a horse and it was smooth sailing galloping from yew to trinsic... and that was like all of 5 minutes, not to do it  with my lag it would take like 15 or more minutes to do. I;m wondering if I missed something about graphic card requirments or is this being caused by the  "copy and paste" technique used to get 2D and 3D elements to blend together in game??  Does anyone else experience this fault with a good connection? and do  you think KR will solve  the graphics issues.. other than meaning we all have to buy new super computers to run UO?? oh and does KR let you keep your old characters? or is it like a NEW game completly??

Dyril... Did you even read the UO's stuff on UO:KR? You'll find a lot of answers there=)

Not played UO since early January, so I wouldn't know. I say uninstall that-which-must-not-be-named and pour holy water onto the computer. That should solve it.

I got heavy lag of the extreme sort just a few days ago when fighting. Not sure what the deal is, I obviously blamed my computer as I always do.

I'm pretty sure UOKR is just a graphic change and not a total reset of the game.

Well ladies and gents i use government owned computers mostly as of late.. havnt been able to read a damned thing on UO:KR. and the lag things been going on forever, though i had thought with the new desktop that I managed to get logged on with at a friends would have fixed past problems, and with a new UO disk and all... problem not solved and yea im in the dark on UO:KR thanks to governemtn paranoia on any web site that says "game" i cant get to any UO related sites, including stratics. I can get here though Cheesy damn you government technology guys who block web sites!! damn you!!!

I would point at the Copy paste techinique as the obvious miscreant here. I can't really see what should pose a problem...I mean I can play BF 2 with almost no lag...But it disconnects me from the UO servers and also gives me a horrid lag at times...

I think they should rebuild that game from the scratch again frankly, Not changing anything, but giving the whole shizzle a unified structure.

Mozilla is a free web browser, widely regarded as much safer and better to use than Internet Explorer from Windows.

Here is a download link, from CNet's excellent Download.com site. I'd be much surprised if they have that site blocked.
