Having a little trouble hosting. I need to know what ports to forward for my firewall and my router. And for my router when I am opening ports do I put the ip which worms is running on or the ip of the host computer that the worm computer is getting the connection of off. Please don't give me the portforward.com link I tried it and it doesn't work. My router is a WGR614v6 and I am running the windows xp firewall. Help much appreciated.

Did you check out this site (http://www.nanacide.com/wahelp/) mentioned in the sticky thread titled "Additional Worms Armageddon Support - CLICK HERE AND READ THIS THREAD BEFORE POSTING" (http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18238)? It has detailed information on router/firewall configuration.

I bet he just didn't see it. It's not highlighted enough, imo. I have discussed this before. Psychologically, especially for people who use the internet a lot besides forums, capital letters get easily-, subconsciously-skipped, because the person assumes they are either advertisements or other internet annoyances. Red and/or bold text, on the other hand, usually indicates something genuinely important. An example can be seen by looking at Team17 members' names on these forums. When I see a bold name, I know instantly that the person is important before even reading the text.
