I can't seem to be able to send files from Windows Messenger. i can receive but not send. I have norton personal firewall, and i think its set up right, the instructions on the website were not helpful. dunno whether tcp or udp ports inbound or outbound r for sending files.
Also i dunno if this could be the problem but i am running ICS, i am the host machine, i know the clients won't be able to send, but shouldn't it not affect me or ?
