*falls over lol*
yes theres a way
start
settings
control panel
windows firewall
exceptions tab
add program (recommended)
follow directions from there.
given the port number im assuming its a IRC client, and you need to port open for a dcc transfer?

LOL.... 
I had already done that up to adding Java(chat) in the exceptions mini...it's a server that I'm trying to allow..but I can't figure out how to find out if the default port 6667 is open...

it probably wont be, esp if you are using it for the chat application.
in the same window i described above there should be a port button. probably next to the program button.
to see if a port is in use:
start
run
cmd.exe
click ok
now you have a command prompt open
type netstat -apo
this lists the open ports and the programs using them.

Hi mini
In the exceptions there is 'Add Port'..next page asks for 'Name' and Port Number under these are 2 buttons..TCP and UDP
In Run after typing netstat -apo on the command prompt it brings up
Active connections
Proto ... Local Address... Foreign address... State... PID
followed by the command prompt again

thats odd
well i got it wrong. on unix its -apo
on windows its -abo
go figure
explanation:
a means list all connections
b means show program name
o means show process id
n means show numeric port number
netstat /? lists all the possible options.
you want tcp for an irc server
/*edit again*/
you could also use the command
netstat -abo > nestat.txt
this creates a text file you can open in notepad and search for "irc" or "6667" (without quotes).

also goto the gibson research shields up port scanner. it looks for open/closed ports.

something is wrong with/interfering with netstat then. i would run sfc.exe /scannow at the run prompt to check it.
also try netstat -a
netstat
netstat -ab
see what happens
you *should* be able to stop it with the ctrl-c key combination, should it whack out again.
the stealth status means that they received no response in a certain time period. this also means others on the internet cannot connect to your server.

the b option may be being blocked by your firewall/security software.
try netstat -an (all, numeric ports) see what is what.

is chatzone the network?
do you have permission to join?
perhaps your settings are in error or you are using the wrong server software?
or their settings are wrong, and wont let you join the network.
states:
established: means there is an ongoing connection
listening: means their is a program waiting for a connection.
time_wait means there is a program that had a connection, but the connection seems broken.

some broadband providers provide a firewall on their servers for "your protection" ; or in reality, so you cannot run a server and use their bandwidth.
