Sorry for posting this twice, but didn't want it to get buried in a reply thread.
I have a TAO connection prob and it's definitely not to do with a pop-up blocker or other such software. I don't use any.
TAO worked fine about two months.
Since the last TAO server clean none of the computers (3 win98, 1 XP) on my network have been able to connect to the TAO server (when the pop-up window opens to give the login screen).
i.e. when I click "Play Tactics Arena Online" (link=http://www.tacticsarena.com/play/#), the new browser window opens, in which the Flash login should load and open. Instead, after a waiting period, i get a "Can't connect to server error", and the pop-up window header is "about:blank" (i.e. no content).
Using latest version of Flash player: 7,0,19,0
IE 6 SP1
Netscape 7.1
Mozilla 1.1
Same thing on all browsers and computers
Flushed caches,cookies, cleaned, dusted and polished->No joy
=>Not browser problem, looks like connection problem.
I use a dedicated Linux firewall, with port blocking. Only ports I want to use are enabled. Has TAO changed a connection port during the last upgrade? If so can the port number(s) be posted?
This would seem to be a valid reason for the probs, and might also explain devast8's problem.
Does anyone else have this prob? because it's seriously annoying. Having withdrawal symptoms, and i've gone back to playing Counterstrike again (bad boy, smack smack...)
