Only can connect sometimes...

I had a problem playing with my friends where i was only able to connect some of the times i was playing with my friends. I was in the DMZ of my router and the firewall in vista set to off. I had no other traffic monitoring programs. It turns out that vista has a very temperamental firewall, even when set to off it will sometimes restrict programs. I added C&CZH to the firewall "allow" list, and just disabled it from monitoring the connection i used for the internet, I have it monitoring the connection i don't use. This worked for me in vista. If you are having a similar problem try messing with the vista firewall settings.

In the games settings when you first start to multi player, there is an option for "Send Delay". Click that on. See what happens.

ehhm, i installed it and even played it on vista ultimate.... but after about 10 minutes the game crashed.
it also happens with stronghold legends, haven't tried the rest yet XD

does anyone know how to solve it?
