Firewall Annoyances

Post by TRON.dll »

Hey, I started a thread on this a while back but I think the site update ate it. Here's the deal:

Operating System: Windows ME
Issue: Cannot play TRON 2.0 online
Why: Jetico Personal Firewall is annoying
Solution: Need an alternative Windows ME-compatible freeware firewall

That's the basic guts of what was in that other thread, and I can't find it. Any help?

EDIT: Actually, if anyone is familiar with Jetico and how to make it work, then if possible tell me how to configure it to allow TRON 2.0 to do online multiplayer.

I went to the server list, and the Jetico window popped up and asked if Lithtech could have permission. I set it as Application Trusted Zone. Now, I can get to the server list, but no servers show up. I do have the Unnoficial Patch installed.

Well, I'm not going to install Jetico in order to find out what needs to be done. Sorry. :D

Instead, I'm going to give the same advice this time, that I gave last time. Switch firewalls. Jetico may be free and still work on Me, but it's a really complicated beast to use from what little I've seen of it.

Try this free older version of ZoneAlarm, that still works on Me.
