I have been playing Halo for PC for a long time. I haven't been able to connect to a game in a few days. I haven't loaded any new software / patches in a long time. My AV software monitoring is turned off.

Symptoms:
1) Start Halo PC
2) Select Mulitplayer / Internet
3) Get List - See list
4) Click on Game that I want to play
5) See it trying to connect but after about 8 attempts it fails.

Have there been any changes to game spy? Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried Halo CE? You should give it a download, and find out if CE works for you or not.

Then, make sure there are no firewalls getting between you and your games.

If your using Windows XP (whice you should be) simply go to My Computer>Change a Setting>Network and Internet Connections>Network Connections>Right click on what ever provider you are using>Click on proprotys>Click on the advanced tab>Uncheck the first box. A word of warning tho, if you do have your firewall off made sure you have some spam/pop up and anti-virus software.
