Hi Matt Morehead,
It's more likely an XP issue that senolgunes posted about
since he chose to post here in the XP newsgroups. Your
question is also interesting, did you post it to the Windows
Vista and/or Windows Networking newsgroups as well?

|| Hi senolgunes,

|| Sounds like there's a firewall in your Router or Broadband Modem:

|| built-in firewall, or open the necessary ports in the equipment with you.
