Fullscreen and Connection Problems
In #jj2 today, SkulLFoR was talking about having connection problems in JJ2, despite having no router and a disabled firewall. He seemed to have made the discovery that the game finally worked if he played in windowed mode, but continued to have the time out problem if he played in full screen mode.
I'm curious if anybody else has noticed this pattern, or if there are people who use full screen mode and experience no problems.
My only guess so far as to why this may be would be due to thread priorities, where perhaps full screen mode takes more processing time and doesn't let the networking component do it's thing.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.</div><div style="text-align: right; text-size: 80%;">1 Corinthians 13:4-7</div>
