Well arrange a game and enter the specific IP I don't know if the search works, even if there is a game being hosted somewhere in the world at that exact minute you try to locate it.

Advertise here on 'poly - I'm sure you'll find a few takers - although PBEM is more popular these days.

Actually, this was with SMAC, not Alien crossfire. It turned out it was ZoneAlarms fault, as it though the other players communications were hacking atempts...
It doesnt really like XP and being asked to run in 1280x1024 either.
