First, turn off the Windows XP firewall. You don't need two and the built
in one sucks.

I've never used PC Inllin but assuming it works similar to all the other
ones that I have tried; after the XP firewall is off, when PC Inllin asks
for permission for NWN to access the internet just answer YES. That should
allow you to do what you want to do.
