I hope you don't mean the XP firewall (or other MS crap) !!!
as long as programs can add themselve to the exceptions of the XP firewall, the firewall is worth
nothing !!!
so better check the exceptions of your firewall !!!

I agree with you !!!
thats what I asked in my 1st reply, "why it connects" ???
I don't know what it sends or retrieves...
I only know it tries to do a TCP connect to port 80 on server at 131.107.115.28 (at tleast you all can see this in the message box from my firewall)...

A google search of that IP gives a lot of results. Seems it's some microsoft thing.

It's no virus, and didn't connect the internet.
I've rewritten the whole engine
You can download the new version
here.

It doesn't, or it didn't? If it did (and I'm more inclined to believe Acki than you), why?

It did not. Come one, I'm only 15.
Why should I spend weeks of programming on a game, and make a virus of it.

There was this problem with hardware device driver certificates several month ago. This made Irrlicht apps connect to WindowsHQ each time to ask for a new driver. Could be something like that also. Though I did not try this app or something.

This time it showed some health bar or something but the rest of the screen was dark grey. And it froze windows and I had to switch off
That was with opengl if that helps. But I'm not going to risk it freezing by trying any other modes...

Does some middleware you're using or some library you've linked with try and connect though?
You're linked to wsock32.dll and do gethostname and gethostbyname calls. You're also linked with mpr.dll and do a WNetGetConnection call. Visual Studio's Dependency Walker tool shows this info.
You're also linked with msvcrt.dll (Visual Studio runtime dll). I guess most people have it but if they don't then your app will fail to run.

People only really want to see Irrlicht Project Announcements on the Irrlicht site.

You just claimed that it was made in Game Maker!
Even if you use Irrlicht for other projects, nobody really wants to see projects that are made with something else.
Best of luck in your endeavors.
