CivNET won't detect LAN under WinXP

You can use "Internet Game". The game doesn't know the difference between what's internet and what's intranet when using the TCP/IP protocol.
A game probably uses the IPX protocol for a "network game", but that is obscolete.

You don't know another program for that:
Rightclick on "My Network places". Choose "Properties".
Richtclick on "Local Area Connection". Choose "Properties".
Click on "Install". Choose "Protocol". Choose "IPX".
Et voila.

Ipx is installed.
I think CivNET may use some old ipx method from the win3.1 era. Win98 may emulates that but nt not.
It works for you?

Eh, no.
