I personally had the same problem, but I've been running with window's firewall enabled- I simply unblocked it and added to the Exceptions list and it rectified the problem for me. Unfortunately he says he never had the firewall enabled at all in the first place- I had him add the program to the exception lists and forwarded all the ports ANYWAY, but no dice.

Friend of mine living in the same house as me (We're on the same network) is having problems creating or joining any SOASE games, it simply tells him that he's been disconnected. His window's firewall is disabled and he has no other network monitoring programs to speak of. Any idea's folks?
