Well I just re installed windows on my computer and had an urge to go use boinc again :). Anyway after installing all of the drivers I installed bionc. After installing it I restarted as usual and then tried adding a project. I did everything as I would have done normaly. It took a long time to try to connect and then it said connection failed. I checked the event log and I found this. ( The same thing happen with other projects)

I searched around and found something about my firewall might be the cause of it. I then port forwarded the boinc used port 443 and 31416 for the local area. I tried once again and the same thing happened :(. I tried disabling my AV firewall already. Anyone want to give me some suggestions?
