Can't help you with the updater, but you could always burn a copy of your directory for them to use.
Not an option, what with... geographical differences. Got a superspeeder I could hire?
Try posting in the Tech Forum, they may have some suggestions that will help.

Knight Court--A CoH Story Complete 2/3/2012
Some ISPs throttle the port used for City of Heroes updater. There is a post by billzbubba (i think) detailing how to change the default port. I think the same info is available as a doc in the NCsoft help area.
If that doesnt help, zip your folder up, and rapidshare.com it. Will be quicker .... maybe ...
I don't suffer from altitis, I enjoy every minute of it.
Thank you Devs & Community people for a great game.
So sad to be ending ):
I convinced an acquaintance to try CoH - the problem is, the download rate is horrifically slow, as in "days to download" despite that their connection is fairly fast. I don't really have much details about it, but does someone know what might be choking the updater?
