    Need help getting this G1S working

    Had utorrent on my desktop and it works on this internet connection, but this new Asus G1S will not accept incoming connections for utorrent. My laptop is on the Internet, not behind a router, so the problem is definately at the laptop.

    I've added the .exe and the port (50389) to the windows firewall exceptions and ensured "block all incoming" is not checked. Even turned off windows firewall and it still doesn't work, so I'm thinking it's something else. Norton worm protection is off. Normally windows firewall and norton would prompt if blocking something, so I think it's something else. Any ideas what else I can check? I'm running Vista here which I'm not as familiar with as I was with XP. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    I think tcpip.sys is bad... probably going to re-install Vista
