And don't forget two things :

A. You should better use a Firewall, at least a Personal Firewall, that's better than nothing.

B. You must ALLOW the game to access the internet, then.

For D2 this would mean the following :

1. You have in this example Zonealarm running.

2. You start D2.

3. After you initiated the Internet access from within the game, use the key combination ALT TAB (ALT pressed, then TAB) to switch back to the desktop.

4. There you see something looking like a dialogue-box : You need to click the ALLOW part ("yes") of it for the game, and check REMEMBER for the future.

5. This is the case for the first time you have Zonealarm running with a game or program, generally speaking.
