Having Vista shouldn't be apart of the problem. Do you have a router? Have you got the latest firmware? Having the latest firmware has been known to solve these problems. Also try searching the forums as there are a few topics on this.
If only I knew what I should put here

Just curious what firewall do you have?

I'm starting to think this problem is to advanced for me to solve so you might have to wait a day for someone to help you with this problem. Sorry.
