hello,
when i click the "network" option in the menu it just returns to the menu
and doesnt show me the network options...
i have windows xp if it matters...
thanks.

Check if your firewall or the built-in firewall of Windows block your program.

I have no other idea of what the problem might be.

i dont have a firewall...
maybe the file i downloaded is damaged....
can u plz give me a link to download red alert 2 that works using bittorrent?
thanks.

well if you're downloading a dodgy copy of it what do you expect?
