Hello everyone! :D
OK, I'm having problems with America's Army and Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. The problem is the same on both, I can't retrieve server list! I even try on The All-Seeing Eye (ASE, similar to GameSpy Arcade), and it doesn't work either! Hmm... On America's Army single-player training it couldn't connect to server to update my score either... AND also I couldn't download a file from the net, but I could on another PC... will this be related? How do I fix it, any ideas? Thanks! ;)

It sounds like something is blocking your connection .(maybe windows firewall)
Download something like zonealarm free edition firewall ,install it then turn off the windows firewall.
when AA or ET tries to connect zonealarm will pop message up asking if you want to connect click yes this will then open what ports are neccessary for the games.

That's what I did with Windows Firewall, it asked me... Isn't it the same? :S Hmm, it's also blocking me access to Delta Force 2... :|

OK, and how do I select ZoneAlarm not to block access? I get a "Protected" message but it doesn't have an "Unblock" option like in WinFirewall... :S How do I disable these? I need to connect to GameSpy! Thanks! ;)
