Ok. First, you need 1.07, not 1.06. I got mine here

http://www.fileshack.com/file_download.x?fid=4560

(use one of the public mirrors to download). Make sure the file ends up in the same folder as the strings.dll file and the original 1.02 dedi (the original file, as in NOT the shortcut or copy). When you say you can't connect, do you mean it keeps retrying the server, negotiates it, won't show up on the list... etc. Chances are, a firewall is blocking it. For me, I couldnt connect until i disabled the Norton Internet Security AND the Norton Antivirus. If you have either of these types of programs, try turning it off and see if it works then.
