I've been playing civ4 lan with two friends a whole lot on my windows XP-installation. Now i has upgraded to Vista and what a bad idea that turned out to be...
Even with IPv6, Windows Firewall and Windows Defender turned off i still can't see my friends lan games in the lan-lobby. I can with out a problem do a direct connection to one of my friends, but then the 3rd apperently can't join, since direct connection only allow 2 computers.
We are all behind the same router so we all get the same ip-range and subnet and so on...but something (vista vista vista) seems to be blocking the LAN-request when i try searching for other lan-games.
When i host a lan game my friends can't see my game neither.
...Any ideas on how i get vista to stop messing with my civ4 game?
