Need some images, firewall related
For an article I'm writing, I need images (preferably with no editing except for culling or removal of sensitive info, I'll add captions myself if needed) of all the screens and dialogue boxes a user must navigate through/enter stuff in when setting up a firewall exception for port 7808, both TCP and UDP.

At a minimum, I would like to have this for both the XP firewall and ZoneAlarm as I suspect those are the most prevalent, but I wouldn't mind getting them for other firewalls as well - I'll include as many as I can. English editions are a must, of course, or I'd do it myself. If anyone is willing to go to the trouble, I also wouldn't mind getting images of port forwarding on a router, though this is much less of a priority.

As you can probably guess, it's an article on forwarding ports for FS multiplayer. With the amount of people who have had trouble with this, even when being guided through it over IRC, I'm biting the bullet and making an illustrated step by step guide that will hopefully include several of the most common firewalls.

Sounds like a good idea. I'm going to be doing a reinstall on my PC in a little bit anyway, When I do I'll try to remember to take some pictures.
