I donīt know any details about how MSN Talking works but I guess that it is
like all other similar programs. If this is the case the application chooses
random ports for the voice-traffic (within a limited scope). This means that
you either have to open up your firewall for all these ports (that means a
BIG hole through the firewall) or use a firewall that understands the
signalling and can open upp the specified ports for a short duration. The
last option is of course the best way to go about it but as far as I know
this kind of software does not exist yet. This is a big problem for all
Voice over IP right now but hopefully this will be solved soon. Correct me
if Iīm wrong.
