Hi,
I've hosted games on Wormnet (the game is W:A) for at least an hour a day almost everyday for the past year, but suddenly starting today no one can join my games. I checked and my IP hasn't changed, like was the cause of this problem before, and I haven't installed any new programs or made any other changes to my computer or internet connection since the last successful host earlier today, so I don't know what the cause could be.
Are there any likely causes for this, and, if so, what?
Thanks

Do some checks:
1. If you have a firewall: Are the game ports open?
2. If you have a router: Are ports forwarded?
3. If you answered 1 and 2 with yes: Is there any malware sending your personal stuff (blocking) on the ports?
