Hopefully Deity will read this and help you out. He couldn't host until he disabled something. Sorry, I forget what.

You probably need to do a little routing. If so there have been loads of threads on this recently......one that springs to mind is Dank's firewalled thread.

I don't use XP, but I know it has firewalling capabilities.......they may be on by default. More important is how do you connect? Do you have a PCI/USB modem or a separate router? The thread you refer to explains the latter, if you have the former you probably need to configure the operating system. This seems most likely if you didn't change your modem but upgraded and changed OS. There must be other XP users kicking around...........

Tuatha is nothing, if not grounded in reality.

And a drill drills holes, if you ever have the need.
