I have installed SP2 on both my computers. I can now no
longer use Winchat. Any ideas?

James
 
Did you check to see if the new firewall is on, and if so, what ports
Winchat needs open to use it?

Given only this information, no.

All firewalls are configured in different manners, and I don't know what
ports Winchat uses. You'd need to check the documentation for your firewall
and find out what port Winchat needs.
