    After much hassel with True Vector issues with Zone Alarm i bought a
    copy of Sygate Personal Firewall Pro 5.5 build 2525.

    I am now unable to play Age of Mythology with my 9 year old with
    Sygate firewall on. I've allowed AoM all access and even set an
    advanced rule applyed to my Realtek Ethernet card allowing all traffic
    (dot in box of 'Allow this traffic').

    Copy of rule
    'Rule Summary:
    This rule will allow both incoming and outgoing traffic from/to all
    hosts on all ports and protocols. This rule will be applied to
    Realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet NIC. The following
    applications will be affected in this rule: Age of Mythology - The
    Titans Expansion & Age of Mythology.'

    I can share files between machines, host a game that the other pc can
    see, BUT not join?

    Any thoughts?
