My Windows PC where I play SPWaW is behind a firewall. I would like to host a game from my PC but don't know what firewall ports need to be forwarded to my PC. Anyone know which ports I have to forward on my firewall?

Try port 7002 that is what Norton Internet Security says it trys to access when connecting to a host.

Just to let everyone know, port 7002 is the right one to forward if you are behind a firewall. Thanks for your help Paul.
