Run-time error 13 when downloading GalCiv

I purchased GalCiv and installed the Drengin Game Manager. After registering successfully, the loader tries to download the program. It stops after a few seconds and displays a message box with the following text:

-----------------------
Run-time error '13':
Type mismatch.
-----------------------

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks,

--- Dave

Not sure what the problem is but could you run the drengin.exe file with the /d parameter.
This will output debug data into the file debug.err
Send me that file and hopefully I can find the problem.
