If I to an online game I freeze up everytime within seconds of joining the 
game. On every freeze up there is a punkbuster message displayed. I have 
given q3 permission to access the internet. If I turn off the nvidia 
firewall all is well and I can connect and play.  Do I need to open up a 
port for PB, or is it just a problem between q3 and the nvidia firewall?
Or am I just waaay to numb?
