I its very simple, if you run a server on the net from your PC. It cannot be connected to by you. LOOPBACK is not allowed. You can use a proxy or get a m8 to look and itl be fine but you CANNOT access your own ip from your own IP. THINK its like mailing yourself a letter, whats the point...I use a proxy... I know because i have a webserverand a multimedia server. Some DYDNS can almost manage this for you though... They manage to not go through the net and just route you internaly to your IIS or whatever... Hope this helps...
