What is wrong with Gamespy Arcade???

I have game spy arcade installed on my computer so i can play age of empires 2 (the expansion) online. When i join a game and a game starts it comes up and says unable to connect. I have all the latest patches and gamespy and aoe2 are exceptions in my xp firewall but i dont know what else to do.

I Have tried looking for help on the gamespy website but there is nothing really helpful...

Can someone please help me!!! I Just want to play AOE2!

Check the firewall, allow Gamespy to access the internet.

If that's not the problem, play the game with an administrator account. That's the problem with Punkbuster, it will kick me out of the server everytime I try to get on without the administrator account.
