Lately I've been having a bit of trouble with my IBM T60. It seems firstly that my iTunes music sharing is not working. Other computers on my network can't see nor access my music. Windows firewall has been disabled and this is still the case.

Around the same time as this problem happened I have been unable to access my schools IPTV. It can't receive broadcasts;

Your machine has a problem receiving multicast traffic. Multicast is the video distribution technology used by Brown to broadcast IPTV. If you encounter one of these messages but IPTV never begins streaming, you may have a software issue that prevents IPTV from being downloaded to your system.

Multiple Network Interfaces: You may encounter problems if your computer is configured to use several different connections to the Internet--if you have a wireless card, for example. Disable settings for non-essential connections (i.e. network bridges) and try opening IPTV again.

Firewalls: If your computer has a personal firewall such as Zone Alarm or Black Ice installed and configured to ?Block Internet Servers,? you cannot receive IPTV, even if you are multicast enabled. Firewalls limit the ability of other network users to send you data, making it impossible for you to retrieve IPTV video streams.

To enable IPTV on a system with a firewall, you can either remove the software by going to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs (Windows), or reconfigure the firewall program to ?Allow Internet Servers? in an option menu. Your firewall must be configured to allow the IP address of 138.16.63.0 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.128 to the destination ports 7000 and 7070

I have made bridges in the past but was under the impression that they were deleted already. I feel that IBM may have a firewall that I don't know about. Any ideas?
