Im having problems connecting to Neverwinter Nights multiplayer after applying a patch?
After applying a patch to Neverwinter Nights please ensure that the game has permission to access the internet and also act as a server. If you are running personal firewall software and apply a new patch to Neverwinter Nights the personal firewall may prevent the game from accessing the internet as its executable has been altered by the application of the patch. This is a common defense employed by personal firewalls to combat Worm-type viruses and the personal firewall cannot differentiate between beneficial changes like a patch and malicious programming. Indicators of this issue may include Neverwinter Nights multiplayer not functioning properly or portions of its functionality not behaving as normal (i.e. Buddy List and Favorites).
