Kaspersky Internet Security is all around, a very nice little Internet Security software. Easy to manage, doesn't eat memory (unlike Norton) and appears to uninstall very nicely. I recommend it if you're paranoid on Internet Security.

Anyway, to business. Unlike Zone Alarm and Norton, Kaspersky doesn't appear to ask for permission to allow programs, so we'll have to do it all manually.

First step is as always, open the menu using your task menu icon. Screenshot

From the main menu, we need to access our Firewall settings. Screenshot

From the firewall window, click on the Configure box to open it's configuration settings. Screenshot

Being that all programs like to lead you in circles, you now need to access the settings of the settings, as it were. Screenshot

Now we need to add our BYOND processes to the exceptions list. Click on the "Add" button. Use the "Browse" option and navigate to your BYOND folder. Screenshot

Now, unlike other Internet Security programs, we get to select exactly what permissions we want to add to our selected program. Just to save time and effort, it's easier just to select "Allow All". Screenshot

You'll now see the rules box will say "Allow TCP and UDP". Something not unlike this. Screenshot

Make sure all the necessary BYOND processes are in the exceptions list for the Firewall. If that's the case, press "OK", close off the control panel, shut-down any active BYOND processes and relaunch your pager. Screenshot

Happy Playing!

(Note: As with all firewalls, this could be only one problem stopping your pager from connection and is in no way a 100% fix.)
