think this would be the right room to post.....

got a mate whos computer cant stream to his 360 using media center (it has to be media center as he wants to stream iplayer through it ...theres some random guide hes found, cant see how you could through tversity but anyways) , hes got

-vista 64bit ultimate
-aol's crappy mcafaee firewall (which is configured to allow the network program permissions are fine and network ip's have been trusted)
-windows firewall is off
-and the ports are allowed even though it wont make much difference....
-and allowed any pc to see media files through windows connect

ive tried with the firewall off and no luck it cant even see the computer.... either by source or media center any clues ???, the media connect etc dosent seem to locate the 360 however, the firewall when doing a map of the network does pick it up but as an unknown but trusted .... any help would be .... "aces" :D
