THe only time i get this is when my Firewall is on... So try configuring setting in the Gamspy lobby. Or re-install halo.

Wait, I don't think he's referring to the Gamespy Arcade. (Which I highly recommend you don't install, because it is loaded with spyware when I installed it on my laptop, and the required update to join it takes forever to download and just freezes your computer, so don't bother.)

No, but I suggest you take it off anyway if you don't use it. Many people get the false impression they need Gamespy Arcade to run it when it is clearly just an option and not necessary to play online.
