This might be a duplicate of bug 55593, but the messages are a bit different and it happens at program startup and not at starting a new game. Not to mention that there might be a relevant difference between F.E.A.R and F.E.A.R Combat.
F.E.A.R Combat is the multiplayer part of F.E.A.R, which was released freely back in 2006. The official lobby server, download, and key generation were shut down years ago, but are being kept alive by the community.
You can get all you need at https://www.fear-community.eu/#update_fear_combat_sec2. I've also mirrored the installer to archive.org and added that link in the URL field. Getting a key requires a free registration with just an email address. If that turns out to be a problem, I'm happy to share mine privately.
