Yeah, I figured it was somethign like that. It's got to be somethinh to do with your internet setup. Check your firewall, AV, etc.

The only firewall I use is windows firewall.

Do you have any anti-virus on? There's got to be something.

I tried everything that you said to try. I even ran "msconfig" and disabled all startup programs except for "microsoft programs" so there's nothing running in the background.

Any other ideas?

I opened my Java IDE then ran the server. Then I opened another window and ran the Client part of the program. Doesn't seem to work.. Please help me out, i'm new to sockets and networking so I could have done a really obvious mistake (to you).

This is a wild guess, but the problem might be that the server is sending the data before the client has time to bind the input readers to the socket. Try sending the data repeatedly every few seconds. If you are still having trouble try reading this sockets tutorial.

I think the code is excuting and stoping to quickly. Maybe try throwing some swing in there, and put those under buttons, or something. Or, at least put a delay in. I don't think the two are aligning properly. Ones listening to fast, or ones connecting to fast.

Are you sure you are starting your server first?
Are you sure your firewall is not blocking connections to your server?
You're getting a ConnectException because nothing is listening for a client connection. However, like I said, your code works fine on my machine.

Why don't you just open a couple command prompts and run each program manually instead of using an IDE? It shouldn't matter, but it will help eliminate anything you might be missing.

In his code, the ServerSocket will block indefinitely.

Totally forgot about the fact that it worked for you. If you haven't solved it by this weekend, I'll try this code. I'll have more time, and plus I have to install java :p
The fact that it worked for someone else, points to the problem being your machine.
