![]() It's McAfee that is doing this to you....This poster found a way around this.... http://www.gnutellaforums.com/258193-post45.html When you have done this and if you still see a wall in front of the globe, you will have to Port Forward your router as it is Nat Firewalled as well... Port Forwarding for the Linksys WRT54G
