All of a sudden, no one can connect to me to upload from me. It was working fine. Windows XP fierewall is off.

WinMX 3.53, XP Pro 2002 SP2 with all current updates from Microsoft. It seemed to quit about the time of the last Windows XP security updates. What do I have to change?

Thanks

Microsoft can do strange things to your PC when it updates..

Its been known to damage the patch if your using the XP version of the WinMxGroup Patch.. reinstalling that may help but you would more then likely see problems getting WinMx to connect if that was the issue here...

The firewall can be re-enabled also by updates.. be sure to recheck that its not on.

The last thing is if your on a router rebooting can cause this and with most updates reboots are needed.. try rebooting again the pc and see if you have any luck..

Let me know how you get along with this..

rebooted several times. have not updated the router software, so no changes there. i rechecked the windows firewall and it is still off. it only effects uploads, but that is alot as sharing is what winmx is all about and i can't share. any suggestions would help.

thaks

Trose,

Check to make sure that your internal IP hasnt changed, the IP is the one the router would assign to the machine your on, when you forwarded ports for WinMX to use.

Go to Start > Run > type in cmd then click OK.
In the black DOS box type ipconfig and look at your Default IP Address.

Open your router web based homepage as you would when forwarding and make sure that number in your rules matches. A few router dont require you enter that info but, most do. Sometimes out of the blue a shut down and reboot can cause that to change, basically killing any rules you had set up.

Let me know..Also while your there might as well make sure the ports you set match those in the WinMX settings for Incoming TCP and IN/OUT UDP too.

I have reviewed all settings on the computer and on for the router and rebooted. no change. any more advice is welcome.

I would un-allow WinMX in any firewalls you are using and let it ask you again to allow it.

Its got to be a blocked port more then likely and of course the most likely culprit is router, dsl modem, firewalls, and antivirus.

Norton includes worm protection and counts as a firewall.

My next suggestion is to bypass the router and see if it works, at least you know then its a setting in that.

Then you must use peer guardian to prevent flooding in the network. Try the dll patch once more. It worked for me and I had the same router problems. Does your problem come when you connect only on primary or in secondary? The latter needs to be addressed. Many people have the former problem. Read some of the other threads to see if they help.
