I know that Playonline had an issue with Windows 7. I had to download a different playonline setup file than what was on my CD's

edit: you might need to uninstall playonline and reinstall it from the link above

Have you tried running as Administrator?
Have you turned off UAC?

Did you upgrade to Windows 7 from a past OS?

edit: When you say "after Windows 7 update" are you referring to going from sayy for example windows xp -> win 7 or are you referring to just the usual windows updates notifications?

I ask because the playonline error message specifically is calling out your OS.

I would probably uninstall and reinstall the entire game.

What mean UAC? before I start uninstalling...

EDIT: trying what Dannyl said before uninstalling the whole game.

If you go to Start-> Run and type in UAC, you'll access the:

I would disable it.
