OK. I have had Halo PC for a long time, but nothing like this ever happened. Recently, for some reason, NONE of my friends have been able to join my games that I host. I can join other peoples' games, no problem, but they can't join mine. One of my friends told me it was either the new wireless router (that I got for my XBOX 360's wireless networker for XBOX Live), or it was the new anti spyware program I got (Norton Antivirus 2006 TechCenter Edition). He said one of them had a firewall of some sort that was keeping people from entering my server. If anyone can help with this, please message me.

P.S. The same thing happens with Halo CE too. PLEASE HELP.

Open ports 80, 2302, and 2303. on your router. And it's probably a good idea to turn off Norton when you want to host.

Exactly, you might also want to be wired to your router, as wireless tends to be pretty bad for gaming, as packets can be lost.
