No it doesn't.

I'm confused as well.

What is the error message you are getting?
Have you read the READ ME FIRST?

--TE

yes I also read through some trouble shooting stuff nothing helped. The game was running a week or so ago but now I can't access the current games listing. I tried restarting the game and computer but that didn't help. I don't really know whats happening

oh and there is no error message, it just refuses to load,

What refuses to load? The ASGS login program? Or Allegiance itself?

Could you perhaps use the posting template in the "READ ME FIRST" thread at the top of the helpline forum?

Message of the Day won't come up and the 'Current Games Listing' button doesn't respond. I log in and boot up fine though. I am able to go through the training missions and I have run Alliegence on this computer before without problem

Tried restarting both game and computer
Looked at router, ports are open

It sounds like you have a software firewall restricting access to Allegiance.exe.

Doublecheck your firewall settings to ensure Allegiance.exe is approved.

Will do thanks for the help

sounds like what I went through, and only a period of waiting worked in my case, so unfortunately I have no techno-exp. to say what the problem is or anything that will sound somewhat more intelligent than, "give it time"...I don't know anything about servers, but it seems to me that with the new updates on the starwars games it takes a while for my computer to react to the server wanting to give the files to me...does that seem possible? laterz, Prymael
