Issues with Ports? People can't connect to my computer
Hey there!
My first post and already looking for help... Sorry for that ;]
As much as I love Windows 7, I do have some issues getting it to work as it should.
I'm not sure if the ports are the real problem but it does seem so.
There are a couple of programs which don't really work. My utorrent has problems with incoming connections every time I start it up. When I randomize the port and restart it, it works for some time. Then the whole crap starts over. (Sorry for the language but I'm really annoyed by that!)
What's even worse:
Whenever I use programs which basically act as a server like FTP programs or other stuff, people often can't connect.
I do not use a router, the windows firewall is deactivated...
I tried to open the needed ports but even that had no effect!
I'm using Zonealarm as firewall, everything is up to date, everything is legit and legal, Windows is updated... I just have NO idea what to do!
SOMETIMES those programs do work. But most of the time not.
Sorry if I didn't make everything clear... I'm kinda sick of it and pretty mad right now, so my english might suffer from that ;]
If you need any more info, please just tell me!
Thanks in advance,
Steve
