Hi there I've got both xp and windows 7 installed and neither can use certain programs like Tweet attacks and article marketing robot. In the first program, when it tries to connect to the internet it says it can't connect to the remote server. With article marketing robot when I try to test an email account, again it can't connect. Browsing through firefox etc works fine. I'm pretty sure it's not a router issue, as I have got these softwares working on a windows pc connected to the same router, but I'm wondering if parallels is blocking some ports or something? I am using parallels 5, snow leopard os, and shared networking. Thanks!
