Whats the problem when...

[unmerged(15855)]

When I play a multiplayer everything connects fine looks fine feels fine. I used to make it a month or two in-game before the game crashed. I thought it was just a normal problem not on my side. But now I crash back to the destop only shortly after we start playing...everytime.

Does anyone no what the cause to this problem is? Or do I just have really bad luck?

Well if anyone else has this problem...I solved it. I never imagined my firewall was causing it. You'd think it come up with a message box or something. Wish I had thought of disabling it before. Anyway everything works perfect now.

To think of all the good games i've missed...damn firewall....

think of all the times that you did not have to format the computer again after a nasty virus or attack - there that should make you more happy

Heh. Well Its worth it. I guess I have no choice but to disable my firewall when I play. There might be a more complicated way to fix this..but i'm too lazy.

Firewalls especially ZoneAlarm seem to dislike HoI...
