Status-thank you very much. I will look into proxies and let you know how i progress.
Nihil-I don't quite comprehend your post. "If you piss about, you will NOT have family in China...........trust me on that one". Are you implying that I have a p**is!? Dude, I am a woman!
BioHazzard-yes I have connection to the internet but am unable to connect the webcam through the firewall and all the information on how to is so beyond me that I am totally clueless as to how to fix the problem. You can find my router information at the Linksys website.
Computernerd22-the firewall is built into my router Linksys Model BEFSR41. It has 4 ports in the back. I am running XP. I tried seeing if there was a way to "check off" programs I would not like blocked but there is no way of getting such a "dialog" box to pop up. IMO....the box is good for one thing, connecting my other two computers to this one! Unless you tell me otherwise!
