--- Comment #21 from Paul Gofman gofmanp@gmail.com --- PS I suppose that if dplaysvr.exe is started on Windows as a service, these events objects should end up being the same too, though I did not test it. Unfortunately I don't have the game to test, but after some googling on this game LAN issues under Windows I suppose that starting dplaysvr.exe on the way is a fallback path which is not used on Windows when dplaysvr.exe is started as service. So to correctly test this problem with Windows 7 one should stop and disable dplaysvr.exe if it is in the services list.
