  1. Hey guys Im looking for a free firewall wich lets me set custom ports. Iv tried zonealarm, kerio, and tiny firewall and all will only let you set custom ports in the PRO versions. Anybody have an suggestions?
  2. well I just tried tiny personal firewall but It also wont let me set custom ports when after the trial runs out.
  3. No I havnt but I have tried the original, ABC , and a few others as well. All seem to be having the NAT problem.
  4. ok thanks for that explanation I had a question about outpost though. are you allowed to open custom ports on the free version. I know on kerio and zonealarm you have to use the pro version to do that.
  5. DMZ does work but then it isnt very secure and bittorrent often gets stuck at 99% when in DMZ mode. Wich firewall? Iv been thinking though that ill put my self in DMZ and download a firewall. Do you have any suggestions? I have tried kerio but it doesnt like battlefield 2 very much and crashes alot when I am playing. Very strange
  6. and there so lies the mystery of computers edit ok ok Yea what video card do you have? Did you install any programs before restarting?
  7. well in alchohal thers a button on the side bar under options wich says virtual drive. Click that and it will open up a box. Near the top theres a pull down menu with the amount of virtual drives you have. You just set it to one or however many you want and ill set on up for you. Drag the image onto the virtual drive and the computer will respond like as if you just inserted the CD
  8. well i found directions on SBC yahoos support site on how to set up a static IP. Thats the directions on how to do it. From what I understand the router has a set aside certain IPs to be static ips. Well I set my computer over to use one of those ips but then I am not able to acess any sites. I use the specified DNS server and everything. Any ideas why this isnt working?
  9. If you do OWN the game then you could use Alchohal 120% to rip the CDs to an ISO or an md5. You could set up a virtual drive and load the ISO or MD5 directly onto it and you wouldnt have to use a CD at all I have done that with sims 2 and battlefield 2 beccause i do play both often and I dont like having to look for disks.
  10. It is turned on but i still getting NAT problems Iv already tried everything in the WIKI but its really not working
  11. Anybody know how to stop getting NAT errors if you have a dynamic IP? Im using Azurues and btw the correct ports ARE forwareded
  12. Thats what im doing curently with my battlefied 2 Disk. I used alchohal 120% to "burn" it to my harddrive and put up a virtual drive. i dont use the disk anymore because its horribly scratched.
  13. Hey im mabey thinking of upgrading my motherboard and processor. I want to just open up my self to PCIE in the future. Currently I am using an AGP (PCIE is better right?). So the board im looking for is one wich has both AGP and PCIE support. As for my CPU im looking for an AMD one. Something around 2.4 GHZ or so. I currently have a AMD 3400+. Price range for both mobo and CPU together is something around 300-400 dollars.
  14. I get high CPU usages when using Spybot so I think your fine
  15. ok it said it everything was alright. Im going to redownload it and try burning it again.
  16. I RMAed this seagate internal harddrive after it failed. After I got it back I noticed that Speedfan SMART tab said that the HD's health was medium like. I found that kinda strange since I just RMAed it. I ran the Seagate diagnostic with a full scan and it came up with no problems. I also started to notice that windows started to hang everynow and then and sometimes my computer wouldnt boot saying that it was detecting arrray. I just unplugged the harddrive and that fixed everything untill recently. I want to install Ubuntu on that drive now. The instalation hangs up alot though. Is this driv
  17. Ok back again. Im trying to install Ubuntu onto another harddrive. Not a dual boot just by it self on one drive. Problem is that it hangs up randomly in the install at different places and I have to restart the computer to get it going again. Iv tried it a few times and I dont know what I can do? Could this be a problem with the drive itself? The drive may be broken Im not sure cause it does act up (sometimes my computer freezes or refueses to boot) when it is hooked up but the seagate diagnostic says its perfectly fine.
