i recently got westwood chat and how do you use it? its the new one of course, but it doesnt recognise me having any games installed and the place i got it from said it worked with T.F.S.
(the first decade) so, what did i do wrong or what should i do? (edit) i mean westwood online.

Westwood Chat ONLY works with Red Alert (1) and Tiberian Dawn (and Sole Survivor in the past), Tiberian Sun and Red Alert 2 have their own built in game lobbys.

Try to run it as adminstrator it solves a lot of problems with "old software".

it turns out that you have to run it as well as ww chat for it to work, but i dont have the right ports unblocked. i treid to un block te ports 5000-5050 but it wont let me. i hate eircom (my broadband provider)
