sorry for double posring, but no1 answerd me before.

I have a probem, i am really sorry if there has alraedy been a post like this, if there has just give me a link to it.

First of all, I have cs 1.5,
when i click on net games it just show a lot of ip numbers, with no map, serever or game names. it says half life for everyone, and has 0/0 players on each game. When i clikc refresh, it takes like 10 minutes to find all the servers, but after that it just shows all of them like i have described on top. It also used to try 4 times to connect to other servers before this(when i actually saw the names of the game and amount of people) but then it couldn't and the reason was "couldnt connect"

another porblem i have, is that i want to play with my friend only, but when he tells me the i.p. of his game that he made, i type it in on "add server" and afterwards it says that it cant connect. Maybe Im not typing it in right or maybe he is getting it wrong, im not even sure that im getting it from the right place.

If anyone can help me, ill be really greatful,

btw the reason i dont have steam is because i used to have it and it screwed up my computer, so i dont need it.

Well, unless Master_America knows how to solve this problem, I would suggest that you make sure you arent behind a firewall of any kind, if that doesn't work, try reinstalling the program.

youre right, i am useing a firewall, but as soon as i launch counter strike, it says that a high risk trojan virus tried to attack my computer, if i turn my firewall off, than ill get a virus into my computer i guess.... if anyone knows what to do please help ..

I don't use a firewall and I have never had a problem...either way, just keep a good updated copy of your favorite antivirus software, and you will be fine.

What firewall is this? With firewalls I've used (like ZoneAlarm), usually a little message just pops up and asks you if the program you're trying to launch is safe or not. If your firewall thinks that HL.EXE is a THV, then you'll just have to shut down the firewall while you play the game. Besides, you get trojan horse viruses from files you download. You don't get them from playing CS.

If you still think someone's out to get you, however, follow the directions in this thread (it's in the Steam forums, but it'll work). Good luck.

yes, turn off your firewall. but before you do that download all windows updates from www.microsoft.com
then you uninstall the firewall because you dont need it.
