I hope this is in the right folder....

I play quake2 on msn zone and i have not had any problems on there before but i seem to now.

It all started a week ago when some person by the name of lord_Haze was shooting his mouth off in the chat area, so i told him what i thought...anyway i join a game and starting playing, then he comes on and asks somebody for my ip address, which the person never gave him. But he was still able to caurse a fatal error in windows, which in turn cursed my pc to crash and had to restart again. He has done this now four times and its starting to piss me off. Is there anyway i can stop this? or anyway to protect my pc from crashing?

Install a firewall.

I can recommend Zone Alarm

I have a Sygate firewall. but i have to turn it off when i'm playing Quake 2 because it slows my pc right down....guess i'll have to leave it on.

A firewall is a program / software that blocks people who is trying to get in to your system.

Can also be hardware which is much better, but costs alot.

Suggest you download Zone Alarm www.zonelabs.com
It is free.
