Check your firewall settings. Do you play any other games online?

I would go into windows firewall (or if you have a third party firewall), and make sure there is an exception for Darkspace. If there isn't one there, create a new one and link it to the Darkspace.exe. Just to rule out the firewall.

Close GameCQ (completely) and restart it. See if that helps.

No, GameCQ doesn't require Java.

Looks like there's something on your maching (most likely a firewall) stopping GameCQ from connecting.

This may seem stupid, but have you rebooted both your computer and/or your router & modem?

do you run darkspace with admin permissions? or in admin mode? or as an admin?

*spock voice*"Have you disengaged the external inertial dampeners?"
