Hello!

I have had SUCCESSFUL gaming servers, with people successfully joining them and playing in them, of course that means that I have my ports successfully forwarded and I have that also done, but few days ago, I had some SORT of... virus attack... my PC restarted 2 times without a warning and the PC went horribly slow, but thanks to your virus removal guide, I have removed the viruses, but sadly my gaming servers don't work anymore, nobody can't join them, except me with my LAN address 192.168.0.*78 and the port checker also says, that the ports are not forwarded, which is very odd since the routers homepage shows that the ports ARE forwarded.
