Isnt Hidden and Dangerous II freeware now?
clear the H&D Setup files from the /TEMP/
re-install under the ADMIN account (not a User account w/ admin permission, but the actual ADMIN account)
Other than that, you'd have to contact the publisher, since they would know which string is causing the issue.

Finally found a solution to this ! I ran a Windows Installer clean up tool, and all is good. Let me know if you can get the multiplayer to work. I reinstalled H&D 2 a few months ago on my Win 7 PC and the single player worked fine but multiplayer refused to work.

i have Windows 7 and have no problem with multiplayer.
i can't run the game but someone with Windows XP can.
i can play with Eugene and Recluse who both have Windows XP.
one of them will run the server.
Right so what you're saying is that someone with Windows 7 cant host the game but they can join a server that is being hosted by someone with Windows XP.

yes. in the multiplayer menu can you see games listed? some of the servers use the community made maps/missions and you can't join them unless you have them also. i currently have the Ultimate Coop Map Pack 1.4 installed, but i see that there is a newer version available so i will install it now: H&D2SS Coop Superpack v 2.1: http://www.hidden-and-dangerous.de/downloads/index.php?file_id=454
