Schrullenhaft Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 Do you have the 'XP Firewall' on ? If so I suggest turning it off. Do you have any other firewall software running on your computer ? Do you know if your network card (I assume that's how you're connecting) is sharing an IRQ with another device. Usually this isn't a problem and it's quite often normal, but on occasion it can cause some problems with some setups. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwwald Posted February 20, 2003 Author Share Posted February 20, 2003 I tried a false address with Zone alarm shut down, there was a reaction came back with couldn't connect to server which would be expected.I will try tcp/ip connection with some one tomorrow.Why on earth would Z/A have anything to do with a graphics card and why does Z/A not ask for permission ?? Just letting off a bit of steam here my friend:) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwwald Posted February 21, 2003 Author Share Posted February 21, 2003 Definitely Zone alarm have tested with Z/A disabled .I could join and connect. What puzzles me is why Z/A does not ask for permission,you can normally check Z/A and give the programme permission. I tried to drag and drop the .exe file to no avail.So no zone alarm with CM for me.Thanks for the help 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
