Hey so I used to not be able to host in Warcraft 3 but I followed all the directions on PortForward.com and now I can kinda host but not really lol.

I make a game and no one can join unless my game is minimized. Then when I maximize back into the game they all get kicked and no one can join again untill I minimize.

Anyone have an idea as to whats wrong? Im using Windows Vista also.

Try running the program as administrator, to do this, right click the icon go to proprties select the compatibility tab and chose the run as administrator option.

I dont know if that will help but its worth a try.
