[X4U] Windows 2000 File Sharing Vanished

[Michael Elliott]

Ean,

Do you run XP?  I"m trying to tell my brother in law how to open ports 
on his XP machine so I can use iChat AV to his AIM 5.5 setup on his XP 
machine, but I don't know how to tell him, and can't find a tutorial on 
the 'net somewhere--with pictures for example--to tell him where to put 
the port numbers.
