Anyone know how to make Norton Antivirus 2005 allow computer to access GameSpy rooms?

I've created general rules protocols to open above ports: 2300-2400 and 47624, as well as ports recommended by GameSpy, but still have trouble logging. Not sure if I'm doing the right thing.

All I can do is login into home page at this stage.

Hi, Mooxe, all.

With the help of Mooxe I determined that my port forwarding was set up ok on my router, however something was still preventing me from playing.

In the end I found that uninstalling and reinstalling Zone Alarm was the key. Apparently over time it can have conflicts in allowing/denying connections and uninstalling completely, and making sure it is completely out of the registry, and then reinstalling can clear this up. It's important to remember that even if you shutdown a firewall your connections may still remain closed. Most firewalls have a "safety feature" that ensures that your system is not wide-open to attack even if a hostile program manages to disable it somehow.

I can now play and host games on Gamespy or elsewhere running high security on both my router and my software firewall. Hope this helps someone.
