lol sorry bout all these posts. i just seem to have 101 problems at the mo

now im connected to the internet as part of a network, when i host a server for an online game the people who try and connect to it cant seem to find the server.
For example, if i host a server on Counter Strike: Source. i tell me friends the ip address and the port, they type it in and nothing comes up. And for all of those who have knowledge of counter strike, i add my own server to the favourites and it comes up saying thats there people playing.
I guess is something to do with a firewall setting.

There are 2 computers on this network (host and client, i am the client). The host is directly connected to the internet and the client connects to the internet/host via a crossover cable
