![]() Make sure that the XP firewall's off & that McAfee's configured to allow LW. PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall Try using this version of Java, some people have had trouble with 1.6.0_01. Use the JRE offline installer & remove your current Java version before you install this one. Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5 The number of your Intellinet looks more like a serial number & nothing comes up with a Google search...is there a model number or anything else on the device? |
