Proxy or Firewall Detected.

GameSpy Arcade has detected that your computer's internal
IP address (192.168.0.100) is different than its external
IP address (24.2.251.78). This may be caused by
firewalls, a NAT proxies, or other unusual network
configurations and may prevent you from hosting a game.
Please see our Firewall Guide for further information.
You can access it by choosing "Help with GameSpy Arcade"
from the Help menu.
