It's probably down to firewall configuration, what firewall do you have on your PC?

The ports required are as follows

Ports 6891-6900 enable File send,
Port 6901 is for voice communications

Allows Voice, PC to Phone, Messages, and Full File transfer capabilities.

IN TCP 6891 - 6900
IN TCP 1863
IN UDP 1863
IN UDP 5190
IN UDP 6901
IN TCP 6901

Hope that helps

Do you get a specific error message, or does it just crash?
