Hey,
I have a teeny tiny problem.. well I can't join games hosted on the port 80 (I really need to), it fails at Checking Status of host :(
But when we set the port to 17011 (I believe it's the default port), everything works fine. I can also join games hosted at worms2d.
The port 80 is used almost everywhere and that's why I think it's something related to worms.
Any help ?

It could be that somewhere between you and the host lies a transparent HTTP proxy, which mungles HTTP requests.

Can you record a packet log (http://worms2d.info/Recording_a_packet_log) and post it here?

This hasn't been mentioned: Ensure both of you (including the one joining the game) have the latest beta update.

We all have the latest build.

On which machine did you record this log? On your computer, and you tried joining a game on another computer hosted on port 80?

If so, then the cause seems to be an antivirus/firewall program on your computer. It's not letting any bytes through, because it's probably expecting to see a full, valid HTTP request.
