For those who can't connect with vista

[StarmanOmega]

Hey everyone, I just found out what causes the "failed to connect to server" message on Vista from a Freelancer website. Apparently, most antivirus programs have issues with Allegiance and some other games on vista. Once I uninstalled Norton and replaced it with AVG (the only one I know for a fact works with Alleg), the game connected just fine! Hope this helps people like me who weren't able to play.
