Dumb question. I want to play Halo PC online. When I click on multiplayer, then click to view available games I get this error message; An error has occurred trying to contact the game spy master server. What am I doing wrong and how do I fix it?

Thanks

Are you connected to the internet when you click 'get list'?
Do you have a firewall enabled?

Connected to Internet, have firewall enabled, but can play Halo CE with no problem.

for you......which means simply you are not trying to be helpful, or contribute in any way. therefore, you should not have posted at all. i'll guess you're about 8, but even at that age, your parents should have tought you 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.' realy, you're just making a fool of your self

now that that's out of the way,
Make sure you're connected to the internet (like if you have a wireless conection that needs to be fixed every 5 mins,lke mine), and that your firewall is letting halo use the internet. i dout it's your firewall though, because it would say something like 'cannot connect to network' when you clicked the option on the main screen. it could be a router issue then.
tell us your internet conection though...it would help
rember that halo PC and halo CE are diffrent programs....if one is let through, the other might, or might not be allowed internet access

The connection is Comcast cable, they are bad sometimes, but CE works fine. Don't really need to play plain Halo multiplayer, just curious why it won't work.
