Yep, that's what I thought. No amount of firewalling can make this work. I do like MonMotha's script though, so I'll keep it, but it's no use for file transfer/chat like what the original poster wanted. It's interesting what Thomas said though. I didn't know M$ has raised the bar again and switched to UPnP for this kind of stuff. Every time a new virus, without the right anti-virus. COULD this be done by writing a module like what ipchains used to have (for IRC, ICQ, H323 etc?). I mean if ICS can do it, surely that behaviour can be mimicked again? I mean , obviously we can't expect Microsoft to stick to any kind of standard for this stuff, but can it be circumvented?
