Alright are any of us going to be in Vegas anytime SOON so we can swing by Shabi's with a laptop and check things out???
Damn man, the more I think about this (and re-read some of the original messages), the more I'm thinking it has to be some type of conflict in your system that's not allowing you to connect.
I just did a bit of research and it turns out that Port 443 is the port generally used for https:// and SSH connections. Do you do any online banking (or anything else that requires signing in over a secure connection)? If so, can you still connect to those websites?
Okay, whilst typing this reply I've had another stream of thought....let's try this (assuming the above works, which I'm pretty sure it will):
First thing you're going to need to do is open up a command window. To do this: Start->Run->cmd [enter]
At the command window change the directory (which I *think* defaults to
c:\documents and setting\$username$) to whatever directory Full Tilt is installed in. I have it installed in E:\Games\Full Tilt Poker so I'm going to use that in my example below - type the following:
cd "e:\games\full tilt poker" {note: the quotes are necessary if there are spaces in the folder name}
so now your cmd prompt should read
E:\Games\Full Tilt Poker>
now type the following:
regsvr32 -u ssleay32.dll
after it does it thing you'll be back at your command prompt again. now type:
regsvr32 ssleay32.dll
once your at the command prompt again, you can close the cmd window. I would recommend restarting the computer at this point, although it may not be necessary. After the restart try firing up FT.
