You most likely need to forward your ports, and make sure that you aren't firewalled.

Go through the tutorial above again to make sure that you've redone all the steps. And the port forwarding is a MUST if you are behind a firewall or router, otherwise others can't see your server.

Look into getting a freeware virus or spyware scanner. I usually use Lavasoft's "Ad-aware", others use AVG Free, Spy-bot Search and Destroy, etc... check http://www.download.com/ for more. You should really have something.

No, he isn't, I remember talking to him in game, can't quite recall what oddities we were talking of, though. o-O His name reminds me of the link who made supb, which is the awesomest mapest in the wholest widest worldest. :D

Its a different Link.  The Link you are referring to is in QBalls, and on irc from time to time, but he hasnt be on for a couple days now.
