Issues with Game starting up

I would like to start playing City of Heroes again, however, the game isn't cooperating with me. I get past the opening patch check screen, and then get stuck on the initial loading screen, and it just sits there.

There isn't any firewall issues, as Windows Firewall is turned off. Attached is my CoH Helper information. Any ideas?
