Sometimes, but when I play until 2050 and after, I have already won. It is just for fun.

I almost always continue, but sometimes i quit, not because of score, but because further in the game the computer is to slow to playing.... He plays for many minutes.... Civ 2 was like that, Civ 3 is worst in that.

hi ,
cause when you are playing you dont need them , they use up cpu power , slow down other programs like the AI , ..... one does not need a firewall to play a game , .....
keep a simple firewall like zonealarm running in the background or esafe desktop when playing MP , ....
that all you need , ....
when playing a game you dont need to run adobe , paintshop , word , etc , ...... > seen it

Civ3 is a big undertaking and by 2050 the game is pretty played out so I usually never go over. Often did in Civ2, however...

hi ,
that normal , the AI has to calculate and take in account all the new buildings , units , trades , etc , ...... things get more complicated , the higher the level , the more complexer the game , the more time the AI needs , ...
yet one way to cut that in two is simple , shut down firewall's and other security programs , close programs you dont need , do a defrag from time to time , ... etc , .....
more ram and space in the memory tend to help also , ....
the higher your cpu , the faster the AI
give it a try and see the faster results 
have a nice day
