That means it's basically timing out or ending the connection.

By any chance, do you have ZoneAlarm? That generally causes this.

Also, set your firewall to except Toribash from everything too, just in case.

I have a modem, a router and a software firewall. None are set to block ports or applications, but maybe it would help if i used port forwarding... I would just need to know which ports Toribash uses.

EDIT:
Searching around led me to the ports 53 and 20000-20300, which I port forwarded. No change.

Firewalls on the modem and router are completely disabled, and the software firewall only blocks harmful processes, no ports are blocked. There is nothing to make exceptions from.

Not to mention 'harmful processes' could likely include Toribash.

Just add TB to exceptions on all the firewalls, even if they're disabled.

I'm not trying to patronize you, I'm telling you that sometimes firewalls AREN'T really disabled. Even when they claim they are. I know first-hand that some do that.
