Heya

I've got my mac mini networked to my pc which i use as
the host. Problem is, i'm using msn on the mac and i can't
send files using file transfer. I get the following message:

"We could not send this file because the connection is
blocked. Please contact your network administrator or
Internet service provider; they may be able to enable file
transfers."

Does anyone know how i can get around this? I know it
has something to do with the ip address that the network
has assigned to the mac and that a remote computer can't
connect to it. Any ides?

Thanks in advance.
