Well I'm not totally sure if this will work, but its worth a try.

set the enabled thingy to 'enabled'

in the name field put 'counter-strike' or whatever name you want

for action set it to 'allow'

leave source at '*'

leave desdination at '*' but to the right of there where it says protocal and is set to 'TCP' see if you can set it to tcp and udp or something like that, then set the first port range box to '27009' and the second to '27016'

for the schedule set it to 'always'

then hit apply


this ought to open up the ports that counter strike uses.. 27010 or 27015 are the defaults i think.
