I'm trying to get Froggy in Freelancer, I git him everything installed he sees the server but when he tries to connect he gets "I'm sorry but the connection cannot be established to that server. This is usually cased by a server going offline when you attemp to connect to it. It may also be caused by connection problems.please try again later" He is on optical fiber in Aus. quad core 2 due running vista 64x ultimate.:boxxstr

With Vista, he will probably have to disable or even uninstall antivirus. That usually fixes it (as much as you can fix vista, lol). Wyno went through the whole list of available av programs and only found 1 that would work with vista.

Well I've Tryed everything, Looks I'll not be Playing Freelancer online,
I'll see if I can Find a Freelancer CD, Soon. Hard to find in the shops.
I am playing the Single Player it Great
If I get the CD I'm sure that it will work for muli play, I have no Idear why this things not working I can see the server, I can See how many players there are, my ping to is 200 so thats ok, it's all there, but when I hit connect It gives me that dumb message in a large Rectangular box
"I'm sorry but the connection cannot be established to that server. This is usually cased by a server going offline when you attemp to connect to it. It may also be caused by connection problems.please try again later"
I see the IP address Freelancer :72.232.124.90:2375
I launch Descent 3 NP ever :72.232.124.90:2099
If nobody know how to fix my problem thx for thinking about it anyways _________________ Nothing yet

If you can see the server, that is correct. The antivirus is probably the problem with you not being able to actually connect. Or one of the other things mentioned in the SWAT link I mentioned.
