Cannot connect due to firewall/sc - but neither
This is not an issue of mine, but a friend's. I'm posting on her behalf.
I'm sure you're all familiar with the error that says something to the effect of "Cannot connect to the server due to a fire or servercheck, would you like to check the website" etc etc. She's getting that error, though there's no sc and I had her temporarily disable her firewall to try, and still to no avail.
What else would cause this error?
EDIT: She has AVG Free, the PC throwing the error is running Windows 7. The connection is wired.

@dillberto My sides, they're splitting. You're so hilarious. Don't tell me and my friends how to spend our free time.
Still can't fix it, for anyone reading.
SAME! Its happened ever since yesterday or day before. Sooo annoying.
If it's windows 7, check the UAC also.
@DivineRikku I didn't think of the NAT, good call. I'll look into that.
@Resmiles Cheers.
Same thing happening for me. It's been like this for a week. Tried disabling firewall and loopback adapter. Don't really know what to do now I'll update you if i find a solution. Hope you do the same
Perhaps it's her nat type?
No clue if that's it but it's worth a try.
