Unfortunately, Markos, when I said the server had crashed I meant the computer, not the TW2002 program.

Must be a node between here and firaxis that has gone belly up then. This sucks.

It appears that both upstream nodes to firaxis.com: wolns1.winstar.com and wolns2.winstar.com have crashed.

Then how could anybody else access the game?

UR, those are the DNS servers. Your machine is probably able to connect, it just can't translate firaxis.com into the correct IP address.

Try the IP address: 209.54.149.240

UR, Try going to the following address:

http://www.firaxis.com/fun/tw2002/

Yes, it's the same one as before, but maybe something got corrupted in your old saved "favorites."

At least it's worth a try...

Wittlich,

My computer can't see the firaxis server over the Net. That's the problem. It's not about software. At least not yet.
