Offtopic: There is a new Terrarium download with NAT/Firewall support. Uninstall the old build, first. Open port 50000.

The one I'm still puzzled about is the Network adapter that shows up that says it's from Xircom technology. I'm puzzled because I have an Intel NIC. :-)

I've not been impressed by their descriptions, and I'm a bit leary to go downloading things that don't have good descriptions attached to them. This is an area for Microsoft to improve upon.
