    Some of my programs can't connect to the internet anymore. They used to function properly. I turned off my firewall and formatted my computer but still, the programs won't connect anymore. Does anyone have any idea why?

    Programs that won't connect:
    -uTorrent
    -Ragnarok Online

    Suspect that port forwarding isn't properly set up in either your modem (if it has a firewall) or router.

    Both programs you mentioned require port forwarding.
    Help on how to do that and what ports to use can be found at each of the program sites.
