I tried to open ports: 10052 and 10054 (TCP and UDP), but I'm not an admin so maybe I cannot open it for myself. I have the standard Xp firewall (it was with service pack2 for xp) and DSL. A tried to change the connecting time limit with the program called xp-antispy V3.55, too. So I don't know from where came this problem. I was playing a long time jazz without any problems. Please try to help me (thanks!)
