New MSN Messenger Online Games Trouble

[Daniel-Man]

I still can't get MSN Messenger games to work, if i try and have a game with someone everything gets set up, but when it comes to downloading the actual board the outline shows up with the little picture icon on the left hand side and it wont load. The person who I am playing against says theirs loads up but says waiting for me to accept. There is definitely no accept button on my computer so it seems like my computer is blocking this step of the process. Can someone help me??

Hmmmmm.....your problem sounds like the opposite that a guy has on one of the other boards I frequent (he can't get rid of them....).

I would look at firewall settings. The game may require server rights. If it does, then enable them on a per use basis, in other words set the firewall to ask everytime you play.
