Reducing lag?

Just now I started CA and lagged a hella lot.
I logged on, pressed enter and had to wait like 5 minutes, could not connect, did it again, connected.
Then I was in server select, but it still said please wait, connecting to server and I was waiting for 10 minutes.
This morning I had absolutely no lag.. what happened?

re-download youre hacks/ engine.exe


and reinstall if nothing works how it sometimes works for me

Engine.exe engine

lag comes and goes for me, just depeneds on how many ppl are on.

reboot your pc close other unnecessary programs
depends on the people who you where playing with maybe they where causing the servers to get all fucked up

ok then! + 1 post for gourav
