Good day.
Used a fresh install of d2 from the battle.net website - version 1.12a - updated to 1.13d via the blizzard updater
Ran anni.exe, also tried the unzip method
single player works
when attempting to connect to the server (gateway annihilus) I either get unhandled exception (if im running on win xp compat mode) or unable to identify version if no compat mode.
any ideas?

Turn off compatibility mode for XP as we currently do not support Windows XP, then right-click Diablo II.exe and Run as Administrator. See if that does the trick!
crash + Unhandled Exception: (c0000005)
What version of Windows are you running? Also, does it say Annihilus 1.0 on the button you're clicking to connect, or does it say Battle.net?
win 8.1
it says Annihilus 1.0, but i get the same error when i try any of the normal realms.
ip annihilus.net
zone -5

Yeah i have norton, but even when disabled, when I click on Annihilus 1.0 it gets to checking version then crashes.
Dont think its meant to be
Ugh that's so strange, I feel like I have seen this before but the usual fixes don't seem to be working. I definitely wouldn't mind teamviewering in to try and fix it really quick for you.
