UNABLE TO JOIN PLEASE HELP

Hi Edward,

Sounds like there's a NAT based firewall in your DSL Modem:

Call the tech support for that unit, and ask them to either setup a
"DMZ" (De-Militarized Zone which means the firewall is disabled)
to bypass the built-in firewall, or open the necessary ports in the
equipment with you... Here's the List of all Ports used by Zone
and DX Games: http://mvps.org/nibblesnbits/PortRoute.html#ports
(See your router's manual or that website for self help instructions)

Note: For online protection, turn on your Windows XP firewall.
