      You should download Flash. Shockwave is a diffrent internet component.

        If you download Flash, and you still have problems, try to use a different browser.

          try using IE
          download the flash plugin

          check to see if you have a firewall up. Firewalls can block MP

          and try using IE

            I'll second to that.

            felixpuncrocoi, what kind of browser do you use?

              damn thing :P

              Thanks for all the help so far, its still not working. I have IE and I use a sygate firewall. I tried just turning off the firewall to see if that helps. But it didnt. This is an annoying situation lol. I know its not ffr, but my computer somehow... Thanks anyway!

                Get Mozilla Firefox (getfirefox.com) and see if that works.

Anyway thanks for the help. Ill screw around with some stuff and try to figure it out :P

                    Well try and see if you have the right Flash plugin. Keep with Firefox.

                        www.macromedia.com then click on downloads then click on Flash Player. That should work.

                            Try and check yopr network settings and see what ports are open. I mean you can still play single player right?
