It took me two weeks to get on this server when I first started, had exactly the issues you have now and went through the same steps, in the end it worked and I was in, trouble is I still don't know exactly what I did to fix it except multiple re-installs of everything.

huh i was in the same boat, i just finished installing last night and finally got onto to the servers after uninstalling avg. Using Avira now for av protection. BTW I tested to see if I had to turn off firewall to connect and appearantly for my gateway, i don't need to. Braveheart, if you've done all the steps in that tutorial and uninstalled AVG and still can't connect but able to see the server. Than I think it might be your router's firewall, not Vista's.

EDIT: T__T my characters got deleted since I haven't logged on for over 40 days and I've just recently built this new desktop for gaming.

I'm not sure if the issue is really your router's firewall but here's a website to show you how to portforward and open up the port for the game. www.portforward.com
