Today's security update...

[Jennifer]

I've turned off the firewall. I've disabled it. And yet, I can't play either
of my online games. It goes into the load screen, and won't allow it. I've
opened ports, etc etc. I don't know how to UNINSTALL this stupid security fix
from today, I don't know even what to look for to uninstall it. I would
really really like to play this game, and it IS a vista problem, because my
xp computer works beautiful...

What you could do:
Open Config Screen (i'm running the Dutch vista so i can only guess what the
application is called)
Security/Windows Firewall/ (at your left hand side) Allow a program through
Windows Firewall (the 2nd option)/ you should see a list with programs,
under the list there is the 1st button, add a Program, choose that
one/Choose your Online Game, if you can't find your game, choose the button
right side of "Path" (i think it's like search or files) Find your game and
press OK(a lot of times).

Hope that'll do the job :-D
