that definetly looks like firewall issue - maybe it was an update of Windows security or anti-vir that set different preferences..
you both should try joining via Hamachi.

The same has happen to me with Vista all of the sudden can't seem to connect in GS. The funny thing is it's not with all players some I can still connect with. So I disabled my firewall for a guy in Germany that I could not connect with and it worked. I Live In US and I played a player from the US the very next day and did not have to disable my firewall.
