You should always patch up to the latest version:

updated and still not working.

im not sure what to do anymore.

Is anything being recorded in the poker server event log or error log when you attempt to make a connection?

No its not even showing up as a connection

Just gets stuck on connecting.

In the error or event log there is nothing.

No, my web host provider (Hostgator) made some kind of mod_security change to my account right before x-mas without telling me and now it's blocking the poker server from accessing the php script that updates the listings at pokermavens.net. I've had a support ticket open with them for 3 days now and they haven't responded yet. Until that gets fixed, you can turn off the "Directory listing" setting to stop the error messages. This is not related to your connection issue, which is most likely some kind of security firewall issue that's on your machine.

okay let me try to do it without firewall
maybe it works

hmmm still not working

I dont know why this is happening and cant even figure it out

Can i try anything else.

it just gets stuck in connecting

I tried flushing the DNS and that is still not working.
Working fine on andriod phone and other people can use it also.

Please advice

Try rebooting to Windows Safe Mode with Networking and see if that makes any difference. Other than that, I'm out of ideas.
