If your a gamer like me and I play them all. Simply put Comodo Firewall in Training Mode and D+ in Training Mode. Then launch the game and play for a min or two. Do this with all your games and presto. Comodo will learn all the rules for firewall and D+. This works for PB also. After all games are learned then simple put the firewall and D+ setting back to where you had them before.

that was exactely my idea when installing Comodo Firewall... Strangely after a while Comodo forgot some rules and I had to do it again. I deinstalled the firewall now and will do a reinstall to see if it comes up again.

It will reprompt if the game gets patched or updated.

Other than that, this is a brilliant simple method of getting games online! The only caveat I have is that you do have to assume that the game is legit and has no other "sneaky" components that will try and phone home as part of the game executing.

Great work!!

I did not think it did reprompt. I thought it kept any rules already added.

Hey Panic tell Melih also that if "Game Mode" is enable the systray icon will be different. With ZA it shows a line through the icon and also gives you a pop up alert that game mode is on and doesnt go away till game mode is off.

I'm not quite sure where to put this, but I'm getting annoyed at the whole situation altogether.

I'm a gamer who plays Halo Custom Edition cracked, and I had installed Comodo Firewall Pro so I could block port 29910. Blocking that port meant that people could play on my dedicated servers. Anyway, after installing it, I had noticed that I cannot connect to anyone else's servers, and no one can see or connect to mine. After an hour of frustration, I un-installed the firewall, and rebooted my computer. After that, I still cannot connect to any server or have people join or see mine. The weird thing is though, is that on my Halo:Combat Evolved for the PC, I can join any server, and have people join mine. I've gone through several uninstall, reinstall, reboot, etc. I have no other options and I'm extremely frustrated. Can someone help me?

Halo works for me. Sure its not your crack. You need a legal serial number.
