try saving them instead of opening. See if that works.

I was talking about on p2p programs:)

What p2p programs are you using? Bittorrent and I think Kazaa refused to work when I got my wireless router until I enable port forwarding in my router configuration page. It been working perfectly ever since.

Can you give me like a step by step tutorial on how to do that?

What is the manufacturer of your router? The setup is slighly different for different routers. For example, in my D-Link, I go into router config and click Advanced --> Applications. Then I enter the blank fields, check Enabled and click Save (I think) and I'm done. You also need to know the ports that the p2p program in question uses i.e. BitTorrent: 6881

OK I just fund this [url=http://portforward.com/routers.htm]link[/url] in another post. It gives step by step instructions on how to enable port forwarding for a number of different routers.
